James Glasgow
before 11 April 1721
Irvine, Ayrshire, Scotland
Current position
James Glasgow was baptised at Irvine, Ayrshire, on 11 Apr 1721. The parish register names his father as James Glasgow and his mother as Margaret Rae. Because the entry records a baptism rather than a birth, his birth is placed before that date, and Irvine is inferred from the baptism rather than independently recorded. The Findmypast transcript is the indexed source for this event. The live WikiTree profile records male sex at birth with uncertain status, inferred from the recorded given name. The cited transcript does not explicitly state sex.
