  • Ireland, Inland Revenue Wills & Administrations 1828–1879, vol. 9 (1833), Armagh court (Findmypast IRE/INREV/WILLS/0148379/1): testator Hugh Glasgow, Drumgreenah, Co. Armagh. Date of will 18 January 1825; date of death 22 February 1825. Executor Anne Glasgow, of "Drumgreenah P T Armagh" (the index does not expand "P T").
  • A second Inland Revenue entry, vol. 3, 1828–9 (IRE/INREV/WILLS/0139010/1), names the same testator and executor Anne Glasgow of Drungrenah, with "date of will 1833". That is probably the year of the grant rather than the will.
  • Prerogative indexes: Hugh Glasgow, Drumgreenagh, 1825 (IRE/DIOC/WILL/00011507); Armagh testamentary bond, 1833 (IRE/DIOC/WILL/00334108). Index of Irish Wills 1484–1858: Hugh Glasgow, will, Armagh diocese, 1833, NAI IWR/1833/F/25, transcript (IRE/ENEC001/26354).
  • Together these confirm the existing reading that the 1833 entry is a later grant in the same estate, not a second Hugh. They add his exact death date, the will date and the executrix Anne, probably his widow; the index does not say so. An NAI transcript (IWR/1833/F/25) exists and may give the full text.
  • These records rule this Hugh out as the Tamlaght O'Crilly will-maker Glasgow-540 (will signed 1827, proved 1831). See the study report.

### Findmypast sweep — 7 October 2026: the 1825 and 1833 entries are one estate

- *Ireland, Inland Revenue Wills & Administrations 1828–1879*, vol. 9 (1833), Armagh court (Findmypast `IRE/INREV/WILLS/0148379/1`): testator **Hugh Glasgow, Drumgreenah, Co. Armagh**. Date of will **18 January 1825**; date of death **22 February 1825**. Executor **Anne Glasgow**, of "Drumgreenah P T Armagh" (the index does not expand "P T").
- A second Inland Revenue entry, vol. 3, 1828–9 (`IRE/INREV/WILLS/0139010/1`), names the same testator and executor Anne Glasgow of Drungrenah, with "date of will 1833". That is probably the year of the grant rather than the will.
- Prerogative indexes: Hugh Glasgow, Drumgreenagh, 1825 (`IRE/DIOC/WILL/00011507`); Armagh testamentary bond, 1833 (`IRE/DIOC/WILL/00334108`). *Index of Irish Wills 1484–1858*: Hugh Glasgow, will, Armagh diocese, 1833, NAI IWR/1833/F/25, transcript (`IRE/ENEC001/26354`).
- Together these confirm the existing reading that the 1833 entry is a later grant in the same estate, not a second Hugh. They add his exact death date, the will date and the executrix Anne, probably his widow; the index does not say so. An NAI transcript (IWR/1833/F/25) exists and may give the full text.
