Jane (Little) Glasgow

September 1825 – 2 December 1924

Craigs, Oritor, Derryloran, County Tyrone, Ireland

About Jane

Jane Little is linked on WikiTree, with uncertain status, as the mother of John George Glasgow (Glasgow-2542), who died in 1857, and Henry Little Glasgow (Glasgow-2131) of Cookstown. The newspaper notices of 1857 and 1897 concerning the two sons do not name their mother, so her motherhood is not proved; the sons' middle names, George, matching her father George Little, and Little, are suggestive only. Henry's 1866 birth registration is the record to check.

Current conclusion

Jane Little is linked on WikiTree, with uncertain status, as the mother of John George Glasgow (Glasgow-2542), who died in 1857, and Henry Little Glasgow (Glasgow-2131) of Cookstown. The newspaper notices of 1857 and 1897 concerning the two sons do not name their mother, so her motherhood is not proved; the sons' middle names, George, matching her father George Little, and Little, are suggestive only. Henry's 1866 birth registration is the record to check.
