People already attached as the subject's parents stay in the identity summary and are excluded from this alternative-candidate list, regardless of relationship confidence. The main calibration uses clues available on disconnected profiles; existing parent and sibling links are retained as comparison context rather than treated as transferable evidence. Common ordered names and grandparent-to-child echoes receive a small non-zero weight, so a John or James match can support several independent criteria without producing a lead alone. Rare names, repeated bearers and bundles across otherwise distinct branches receive substantially more weight according to catalogue frequency. An exact migration place is weighted by its rarity and repetition across both branches; a shared destination country is worth only one point. Extra weight is added only when at least three independent clue types converge: naming, locality, specific migration, household chronology or collateral networks. Sparse profiles retain a clearly labelled chronology-only fallback instead of disappearing. Countries, states, counties and research clusters do not count as a shared locality, and fallback, broad representative or kin-inferred coordinates are excluded from distance scoring. Shared descendant profiles are removed before branch-name comparison. A candidate already recorded as a parent-in-law is excluded. A confident or independently supported parent is treated as settled; uncertain and unassessed attachments remain open to alternative comparison. A different linked parent, an uncle/aunt or grandparent path, and a matching existing child profile prevent an alternative from being classified as a strong direct-parent lead until the underlying tree conflict or duplicate is resolved. Familiar forms such as Bessie are normalised. Surname remains an eligibility filter worth zero points.","warning":"Naming customs, shared farms and occupations are circumstantial. Children, spouses and collateral relatives may be missing, and tree-derived family networks are not independent evidence.

Hugh Glasgow’s trustees or executors were to pay £250. | Original images inspected. Direct intended marriage and estate association, not a marriage-register date or father-daughter statement. Full memorial/book reference remains to verify. |\n| [1851 census household, image 007246521_00320](https://nationalarchives.ie/collections/search-the-census/view-pdf/?doc=007246521_00320&c19=true), [deceased table, image 007246521_00321](https://nationalarchives.ie/collections/search-the-census/view-pdf/?doc=007246521_00321&c19=true), Cross Street house 1, Larne | John McGavock, 50, merchant and innkeeper, widower, married 1824, 1827 and 1843. Wife Mary, 37, died of jaundice in autumn 1843. | Strong but provisional match to settlement couple; census supplies no maiden surname. About 1806 birth and about 1843 death depend on that identification. Absent sons James and John, 22, predate this marriage and are not assigned to Mary. |\n| [Larne monument transcription, Ulster Journal of Archaeology 6 (1900), p.47](https://archive.org/details/ulsterjournalofa06ulstiala/page/47/mode/1up) | Mary Glasgow-3989, daughter of William Glasgow-3324, died 18 October 1844 aged 37. | Possible duplicate of this bride; death year conflicts with census wife. Separate profiles are provisional, not proof of two women. If identical, William’s documented fatherhood takes precedence over the Hugh hypothesis. |\n\n## Identity and relationship assessments\n\nHugh Glasgow-4180 is attached as uncertain father. Estate provision is compatible with a father’s marriage provision, but Hugh could be another relative or benefactor. Hugh’s proposed father James Glasgow-3991 is a separate low-confidence hypothesis. No mother is assigned. Larne is the bride’s recorded residence, not a proved birthplace; inferred birth/death places remain uncertain. McGavock and the estimated vital dates depend on the provisional census match.\n\n## Priority actions\n\nLocate Hugh’s will and Mary’s marriage or burial register. Compare the original monument and title succession to resolve Mary Glasgow-3989’s possible identity before any merge or parentage change.\n\n"}],"vitals":{"birth":{"date":"c. 1806","place":"Larne, County Antrim, Ireland","status":"estimated"},"death":{"date":"c. 1843","place":"Larne, County Antrim, Ireland","status":"estimated"}},"vital_place_labels":{"birth":"Larne, County Antrim, Ireland (inferred; uncertain)","death":"Larne, County Antrim, Ireland (inferred; uncertain)"},"principal_locality":"Larne: recorded residence in the 1843 settlement","resolution":{"state":"resolved","basis":["maintained Current conclusion finding"],"issues":[],"source_ids":["research/Glasgow-4181/findings.md"]},"record_associations":[{"record_id":"larne-marriage-settlement-1843","association":"Mary Glasgow and John McGavock intended-marriage settlement; Hugh Glasgow estate","date":"10 February 1843","year":1843,"place":"Larne, County Antrim, Ireland","source_url":"https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSJW-FQ3Q","status":"Original images inspected; kinship unstated","note":"Affidavit 14 February; registered 18 February 1843; continuation image 3Q9M-CSJW-F3BZ. £250 to be paid by deceased Hugh Glasgow’s trustees or executors.
