About Amelia

Glasgow-3645 cites the 1867 Ardrossan death-index entry naming Amelia Glasgow, age 87, and mother L’Aborde. This accords with this profile’s Rosalie Laborde parentage and Ardrossan death. The profiles are strong duplicates, but no merge was made because this profile is managed by another member.

Summary of the research

Overall conclusion

This summary is given in full at the top of the page.

What the records show

Source findings
  • ScotlandsPeople death index, Ardrossan 1867, 576/2/47; the 1803 trust-deed legacy and 1804 marriage are retained on Glasgow-3789.
Source findings — profile matching, 30 September 2026

The current public biography cites the 17 December 1804 Kilbirnie marriage to Andrew Wilson and Paisley baptisms naming the mother as both Amelia and Emilia. UCL’s Amelia Theobalds account explicitly distinguishes John Glasgow’s sister Amelia Wilson from his housekeeper, Amelia Theobalds-120. Link this existing Wilson profile as the sister; the trust beneficiary Emilia remains a qualified identification. The earlier Glasgow-3645 duplicate assessment remains unchanged; no merge or live save was made.
