Elizabeth Glasgow

Biography
Elizabeth Glasgow, recorded as Eliz Glascho, was named in the 1669 Hearth Money Roll for Glenarm Town, Tickmacrevan parish, Lower Glenarm barony, County Antrim. Public Record Office of Northern Ireland, 1669 County Antrim Hearth Money Roll, T/307/A; W. Macafee, surname transcription (https://www.billmacafee.com/1660shearthmoneyrolls/1669hearthmoneyrollsantrim.pdf), record 5730, PDF p. 36 (accessed 17 July 2026). 

Her appearance in the roll indicates that she was the person associated with a taxable hearth or household at Glenarm Town. The record does not state whether she owned or rented the property, nor does it identify her as a wife or widow. She may have been the head of the household, but that remains an inference.

The entry provides no age or birthplace. Elizabeth was therefore born before 1669, although the more specific estimate of before 1651 assumes that she was at least about eighteen when recorded and should be treated as uncertain.

The same return records James and Jo Glascho at Kilwaughter Demesne, in neighbouring Upper Glenarm barony. Their shared surname, close date and east-Antrim locations make membership of the same extended family possible. The hearth roll, however, records no relationship between them.

No parents, spouse, children or later records have been identified for Elizabeth with confidence.
Research Notes
Suggested profile data:

* First name: Elizabeth.
* Name as recorded: Eliz.
* Last name at birth: Glasgow.
* Other surname or spelling: Glascho.
* Birth: before 1651, place unknown, uncertain.
* Death: after 1669, place unknown, uncertain.
* Residence: Glenarm Town, Tickmacrevan parish, County Antrim, Ireland, in 1669.
* Parents, spouse and children: unknown; leave unconnected.

The birth estimate is based only on presumed adulthood in 1669. The source does not provide her age, and a less specific date of before 1669 would also be defensible.

Glenarm was Elizabeth's recorded residence, not her stated birthplace.

Do not identify her as the wife of Archibald Glasgow or attach her to James or John Glascho of Kilwaughter without a record establishing the relationship.

A workbook search conducted on 17 July 2026 found no compatible WikiTree profile for an Elizabeth or Eliz Glasgow or Glascho born before 1700 with an association to Glenarm or Tickmacrevan.
