Andrew Glasgow
21 May 1733
Irvine, Ayrshire, Scotland
About Andrew
This is a weak chronological candidate for A. Glascow in a June 1794 Dutch shipping report. Adult in 1794; Irvine is a plausible Scottish coastal context, but neither the profile nor its reviewed source summary records a maritime occupation or this Rotterdam occurrence. No identity bridge. No forename expansion, maritime occupation, migration or family relationship is established for this profile.
