Assessment: Family and duplicate audit

The 1874 William is linked to William Glasgow and Helen Hewitt. The Armagh marriage was registered in 1873; a family statement identifies a firstborn William who died and a youngest son William born in 1898. The birth index renders the mother’s maiden surname “Tate Hewitt”. This is a probable family identification, not a certificate reading.
