Isobel Glasgow

1597

Corsoun, Calder Cleir, Midlothian, Scotland

Current position

Andrew Glasgow's 1597/8 testament directly names a daughter Isobel. This profile represents that record-defined child. The estimated birth year and Corsoun birth place are not documented birth facts. The mother link to Elizat Stevinsoun should remain uncertain: the testament identifies her as mother of son Robert, but does not separately state maternity for the daughters.

Conclusion: Current conclusion

Andrew Glasgow's 1597/8 testament directly names a daughter Isobel. This profile represents that record-defined child. The estimated birth year and Corsoun birth place are not documented birth facts. The mother link to Elizat Stevinsoun should remain uncertain: the testament identifies her as mother of son Robert, but does not separately state maternity for the daughters.

Issobell Glasgow, wife of William Symountoun married in Edinburgh in 1619 and mothered a son there in 1620. Neither record names her parents or connects her to Corsoun. Possible identity only; do not merge without a connecting record. The live Corsoun biography was cross-linked and verified 26 September 2026.
