Mary Hilley

28 December 1921 – 31 January 2004

Glasgow, Scotland, United Kingdom

Current position

Mary Hilley and Margaret Ann (Hilley) Glasgow are recorded as sisters, daughters of James Hilley and Elizabeth Gilmour. The proposed Mark Glasgow–T Siddle relationship through these sisters is strongly plausible but needs civil records and confirmation of the private generations.

Sources: Source findings
  • T Siddle's user-supplied GEDCOM records Mary as born 28 December 1921 in Glasgow, died 31 January 2004 in Aberdeenshire, and daughter of James Hilley and Elizabeth Lochead Gilmour.
  • Margaret's WikiTree relationship data independently places Mary among her siblings, although the underlying profile citation is a handed-down family tree rather than a primary record.
  • Mark (FA7172012) and T (QP2207364) share 171.9 cM across six segments, with a largest segment of 64.8 cM. See ydna/autosomal_dna_audit.md.

Assessment: Relationship assessment

The GEDCOM layout appears to make Mary T's grandmother. If so, and Margaret is Mark's grandmother, the testers are second cousins. The shared DNA supports that relationship class but cannot distinguish the Hilley route from an unknown second shared ancestry without further comparison.

Actions: Recommended next records
  • Verify Mary's birth and parents with the statutory birth entry.
  • Confirm her marriage and the parent-child steps down to T Siddle.
  • Use GEDmatch shared-match and segment-overlap tools to seek triangulation with another independently documented Hilley descendant.
