About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Glasgow, written 'Eliz Glascho', was a taxed householder at Glenarm town, Tickmacrevan parish, County Antrim, in the 1669 hearth money roll, the only record of her yet found. Her birth is estimated at about 1648 or earlier, an inference from the assumption that a householder was at least 21; no age is recorded. James Glascho and Jo Glascho (Glasgow-3913) appear in the same roll at Kilwaughter Demesne, which makes a shared extended family plausible, but no relationship is stated. Her parents, spouse and children are unknown.

Other research notes
Birth-estimate audit - 21 August 2026
The live structured birth was corrected to about 1650, uncertain. The 1669 record identifies an adult Elizabeth at Glenarm but supplies no birth year. The earlier before value remains only a strict chronological boundary, not the most useful estimated birth. No biography, relationship, source or other structured field was changed in this audit.

Recommended correction — vital dates, 6 October 2026
Birth: about 1648 or earlier (estimate; no age recorded). "Eliz Glascho" was a taxed householder at Glenarm town in the 1669 hearth-money roll (Macafee transcription, record 5730) and is assumed to have been at least 21. No later record is known. The present "about 1650" would make her a householder at 19.

The earlier `before` value remains only a strict chronological boundary, not the most useful estimated birth. No biography, relationship, source or other structured field was changed in this audit.
