Nancy J (Glendinning) Glasgow
c. 1515 – c. 1555
Midlothian, Scotland
About Nancy
This is an uncertain-existence profile derived from unsourced tree material,
not a record-defined sixteenth-century person. No original record supports the
forename Nancy J., the Glendinning identity, the dates, or a marriage into the
Glasgow family. The live biography itself rejects the earlier attempt to make
her mother of James Glasgow (Glasgow-1168).
