What the records show

FamilySearch full-text deed pass - 21 August 2026

Exact-name searches for Mary Harkness and Mary Glasgow in eighteenth-century Moneymore, Derryloran, Cookstown and Kilrea produced no matching record. The same searches returned several James Glasgow deeds, but inspection identified other men in Larne and Aghadonvane/Leitrim-Donegal. None names Mary or links a Harkness woman to James Glasgow or to Robert, Arthur and Joseph Glasgow. This pass supplies no evidence for Mary Harkness as the wife of Glasgow-1024 or the mother of the emigrant siblings.
