About John

Glasgow-3610 is known from a derivative entry naming an adult Johne Glasgow as father of a child Johne christened on 22 April 1649 under the combined Kirknewton and East Calder catalogue label. That record says nothing about the adult father's parents.

Summary of the research

Overall conclusion

The unsupported father attachment to Glasgow-1087 was removed live on 26 September 2026. His former exact 18 February 1626 birth and inferred birthplace were also removed. The live structured date now says before 1629, uncertain: an adulthood estimate from his children's 1646–49 baptisms, not a recorded birth date. Preserve him as a record-defined father unless another source establishes his own parents or birth.

Current conclusion

Glasgow-3610 is known from a derivative entry naming an adult Johne Glasgow as
father of a child Johne christened on 22 April 1649 under the combined
Kirknewton and East Calder catalogue label. That record says nothing about the
adult father's parents.

The unsupported father attachment to Glasgow-1087 was removed live on 26
September 2026. His former exact 18 February 1626 birth and inferred birthplace
were also removed. The live structured date now says **before 1629, uncertain**:
an adulthood estimate from his children's 1646–49 baptisms, not a recorded
birth date. Preserve him as a record-defined father unless another source
establishes his own parents or birth.
