== Biography ==

'''Thomas Glasgow''' was a farmer of Lisnagaver in Rasharkin parish, County Antrim. His exact birthplace and parents have not been proved.

Thomas was born about 1815. His age of 35 in the 1851 census and his reported age of 55 at death in 1870 independently place his birth in approximately 1814–1816.<ref name="Census1851">1851 Ireland Census, residents of house 37, Lisnagaver, Rasharkin, Kilconway, County Antrim, National Archives of Ireland, [http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1851/Antrim/Kilconway/Rasharkin/Lisnagaver/37/ household return] (accessed 12 May 2025).</ref><ref name="ThomasDeath">“Ireland, Deaths, 1864–1870,” digital film/folder 004024453; FHL microfilm 101716; record 2; packet G; {{FamilySearch Record|FGFD-PYC}}; Thomas Glasgow, died 21 June 1870, aged 55, Lisnagaver (accessed 12 May 2025). This is an indexed record; the original civil return remains to be obtained.</ref>

Thomas married '''[[McCracken-5681|Mary Ann McCracken]]'''. Their marriage date and congregation have not been identified. No located record names another wife.

=== Early family ===

A derivative transcription of the Rasharkin Presbyterian register records three early children:

* Eliza Glascaw, born 17 August 1842 at Moneyleck, daughter of Thomas and Mary Ann McCrackin;
* Eliza Glascow, born 17 October 1843 and baptised 5 November 1843, daughter of Thomas and Mary Ann McCracken of Lisnagaver;
* Jane Glascaw, born 29 April 1846, daughter of Thomas and Mary Ann McCracken of Lisnagaver.<ref name="RasharkinBaptisms">Barbara Braswell, transcript of Rasharkin Presbyterian Church baptisms, [https://genealogy.torrens.org/BannValley/church/RasharkinP/Baptisms_1834.html ''Baptisms, 1834–1846''], entries 162, 199 and 269 (accessed 9 August 2026). This is a derivative transcription; the controlling original register is PRONI MIC1P/292.</ref>

The two Eliza entries appear to concern separate children. The younger Eliza was still living in 1851. The older child probably died before the younger Eliza was named, but no death or burial record has been found. Her previously assigned death about 1845 is unproved.

=== 1851 census ===

Thomas and Mary Ann were recorded at Lisnagaver in the surviving 1851 Irish census.<ref name="Census1851" />

| [[Glasgow-1034|Rose Ann Glasgow]]
| Aged ten and recorded as a daughter in 1851.<ref name="Census1851" />
| Documented daughter of Thomas and Mary Ann. Her reported later identification with the wife of John Alexander Redpath in New Zealand depends on later family and New Zealand evidence.<ref name="FamilyAccount">Peter, “Trying to find Glasgow,” ''Genes Reunited'', Find Ancestors message board, posted 25 January 2007, with replies dated 9 April 2020, [https://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/board/general_topics/thread/465937 discussion] (accessed 9 August 2026).

|-
| [[Glasgow-1360|Eliza Glasgow]]
| Born 17 August 1842 at Moneyleck to Thomas and Mary Ann McCrackin.<ref name="RasharkinBaptisms" />

|-
| [[Glasgow-3976|Catherine Glasgow]]
| Aged 24 when she gave notice of marriage at Christchurch in October 1877. A derivative Victorian death-index entry reportedly names her mother as Mary Ann McCracken.<ref name="CatherineITM">New Zealand Notices of Intention to Marry, derivative transcription, Christchurch district, 3 October 1877, Catherine Glasgow, age 24, spinster and milliner, three years' residence at Christchurch, intending to marry Benjamin Pherson Ekberg, [https://itm.howison.co.nz/year/1877/district/christchurch transcription] (accessed 9 August 2026).</ref><ref name="CatherineDeathIndex">Victoria death index, Catherine Ekberg, 1946, registration 12550, derivative details reproduced in the later Glasgow family discussion; father recorded under the surname Glasgow and mother as Mary Ann McCracken.</ref><ref name="FamilyAccount" />
| Probable daughter. Her original baptism and Victorian death certificate are required. She is also a plausible, but unproved, identification for the Kate Glasgow present at [[Glasgow-3896|Daniel Glasgow]]'s death in 1871.
|-
| [[Glasgow-3975|Sarah Glasgow]]
| Four original civil birth returns identify Sarah Taylor, formerly Glasgow, as the wife of Charles Taylor, farmer, at Lisnagaver.<ref name="TaylorBirths">Ireland civil birth returns: Ellen Taylor, born 20 January 1897, Lisnagaver, [https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/birth_returns/births_1897/02142/1813179.pdf original image]; Catherine Taylor, born 8 April 1899, Lisnagaver, [https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/birth_returns/births_1899/02043/1782340.pdf original image]; Charles Taylor, born 21 December 1902, Lisnagaver, [https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/birth_returns/births_1902/01892/1735215.pdf original image]; Alexander Taylor, born 28 January 1905, Lisnagaver, [https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/birth_returns/births_1905/01798/1705043.pdf original image] (accessed 9 August 2026).</ref>
| Probable daughter. The records strongly corroborate the reported marriage and Lisnagaver residence but do not name Sarah's father.
|-
| Alexander Glasgow
| Reported to have emigrated to South Africa or the United States.<ref name="FamilyAccount" />
| Possible child only. No contemporary record identifying him as Thomas's son has been found.
|-
| [[Glasgow-2413|Daniel Neely Glasgow]]
| His 1888 marriage records him as a farmer of Lisnagaver and son of Thomas Glasgow, farmer.<ref name="DanielMarriage">Ireland civil marriage return, no. 79, [[Glasgow-2413|Daniel Neely Glasgow]] and Mary Jane Boyd, 28 June 1888, Boveedy First Presbyterian Church, County Londonderry, [https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/marriage_returns/marriages_1888/10763/5925382.pdf original image] (accessed 9 August 2026).</ref>
| Documented son of Thomas. The marriage does not name his mother. He was recorded as “Full,” meaning over 21, and was therefore born before 28 June 1867.<ref name="GRONIFull">General Register Office for Northern Ireland, [https://www.nidirect.gov.uk/articles/gronis-online-search-results “GRONI's online search results”], explanation that “Full” means over 21 (accessed 9 August 2026).</ref>
|}

Daniel Neely's previously assigned birth about 1870 is incorrect. His age category at marriage proves that he was born before 28 June 1867.<ref name="DanielMarriage" /><ref name="GRONIFull" />

=== Brother Daniel Glasgow of Kilrea ===

Thomas was a brother of '''[[Glasgow-3896|Daniel Glasgow]]''', the watch and clock maker of Kilrea.

Daniel's registered will refers to:

<blockquote>“my late brother Thomas Glasgow” ... “my nephew Daniel Neely Glasgow”</blockquote>

The will was proved in 1871.<ref name="DanielWill">Public Record Office of Northern Ireland, [https://apps.proni.gov.uk/willscalendar_ie/willssearch.aspx Will Calendars], registered will of [[Glasgow-3896|Daniel Glasgow]] of Kilrea, proved 1871; refers to his late brother Thomas and nephew Daniel Neely Glasgow (accessed 17 July 2026).</ref>

Daniel Neely's marriage independently names his father as Thomas Glasgow, farmer, and gives his residence as Lisnagaver.<ref name="DanielMarriage" /> Together, the will and marriage identify Daniel of Kilrea as Thomas's brother and Daniel Neely as Thomas's son.

Daniel died at Kilrea on 16 October 1871, aged 75. The original civil return names '''Kate Glasgow, present at death, Kilrea''' as the informant.<ref name="DanielDeath">Ireland civil death return, no. 362, [[Glasgow-3896|Daniel Glasgow]], died 16 October 1871 at Kilrea, aged 75, widower and watchmaker; informant Kate Glasgow, present at death, Kilrea, [https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/deaths_returns/deaths_1871/020759/7282767.pdf original image] (accessed 9 August 2026).</ref> The return does not state Kate's relationship to Daniel.

=== Landholding ===

A transcript of Griffith's Valuation lists Thomas Glasgow, John Glasgow and Alexander Glasgow as occupiers at Lisnagaver.<ref name="Griffith">Griffith's Valuation transcript for Rasharkin parish, [https://www.irishgenealogyhub.com/antrim/griffiths-valuation/parish-of-rasharkin.php entries for Lisnagaver] (accessed 9 August 2026). This is a derivative transcript; the original valuation page, map and plot references remain to be checked.</ref>

Their presence in the same townland makes a relationship plausible but does not establish whether John and Alexander were Thomas's brothers, uncles, cousins or unrelated members of the same surname cluster. The original valuation page and subsequent revision books are required before plot succession can be used as relationship evidence.

=== Death ===

Thomas died at Lisnagaver on '''21 June 1870''', aged 55.<ref name="ThomasDeath" />

His reported age is consistent with the age recorded in 1851 and gives an estimated birth in about 1814 or 1815. His burial place has not been identified.

=== Brother Daniel and the Prescott connection ===

Thomas was a brother of [[Glasgow-3896|Daniel Glasgow]], watchmaker of Kilrea. Daniel's will calls Thomas his late brother and Daniel Neely Glasgow his nephew; Daniel Neely's marriage independently identifies Thomas as his father.<ref name="DanielWill">Public Record Office of Northern Ireland, [https://apps.proni.gov.uk/willscalendar_ie/willssearch.aspx Will Calendars], registered will of Daniel Glasgow of Kilrea, proved 1871 (accessed 17 July 2026).</ref><ref name="DanielMarriage" /> Daniel's death return names Kate Glasgow as informant but gives no relationship.<ref name="DanielDeath">Ireland civil death return no. 362, [[Glasgow-3896|Daniel Glasgow]], died 16 October 1871, Kilrea, [https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/deaths_returns/deaths_1871/020759/7282767.pdf original image] (accessed 9 August 2026).</ref>

The original deeds under the will of their brother Robert Glasgow of Prescott independently identify the same Thomas and Daniel. Robert's will, dated 9 October 1849, gives shares to his brothers Daniel, Samuel, John and Thomas, sister Mary, and collectively the children of brother James; it does not call James deceased.<ref name="RobertWill1849">Grenville County land records, DGS 8200419, image 35, registered will of Robert Glasgow of Prescott, dated 9 October 1849, [https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSLG-LWY9-S original image].</ref> Memorial 13 records the 30 October 1856 deed, registered 13 November 1856, between Robert's widow Jane and Samuel Glasgow, merchant, concerning Samuel's one undivided sixth share.<ref name="RobertWill1856">Grenville County land records, DGS 8200419, image 36, Memorial 13, dated 30 October 1856 and registered 13 November 1856, [https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSLG-LWYM-6 original image].</ref> Memorial 465, dated 30 July 1861 and registered 7 October, names Daniel of Kilrea, watchmaker, and wife Margaret, and Thomas of Lisnagaver, farmer, and wife Mary Ann, as transferors to Samuel of two undivided sixth interests under Robert's will.<ref name="RobertWill1861">Grenville County land records, DGS 8200419, image 240, Memorial 465, registered 7 October 1861, printed p. 397, [https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSLG-LWB8-D original image].</ref> The deeds establish Thomas, Daniel, Samuel and Robert as brothers; they do not identify their parents.

== Research Notes ==

=== Former merge and the Coltrim census ===

A formerly separate WikiTree profile, '''Glasgow-2994''', was merged into this profile. Its estimated birth about 1823 has no identified contemporary source and conflicts with the approximately 1815 birth indicated by Thomas's 1851 and 1870 ages.

The legacy link attached to the merged material referred to a 1901 household at Coltrim, Moneymore DED, County Londonderry.

The surviving Form B1 confirms that another Thomas Glasgow was the householder at house 7 in Coltrim and refers to Form A schedule 6. It appears to record four occupants, but it does not give Thomas's age, family relationships, birthplace or occupation.<ref name="ColtrimB1">1901 Ireland Census, Form B1, Coltrim townland, Moneymore DED, South Derry, County Londonderry, house 7, householder Thomas Glasgow, Form A schedule 6, National Archives of Ireland, [https://nationalarchives.ie/collections/search-the-census/view-pdf/?doc=nai000629314 original image] (accessed 9 August 2026).</ref>

Since the Lisnagaver Thomas died in 1870, the Coltrim return belongs to another man. It does not establish that the Coltrim man was born about 1823. Glasgow-2994 should not be recreated as a separate person unless Form A schedule 6 or another original record establishes his age and family.

=== Kate Glasgow at Daniel's death ===

Daniel's civil death return names Kate Glasgow as the informant and says that she was present at his death.<ref name="DanielDeath" /> It does not call her his sister and does not state any relationship.

[[Glasgow-3976|Catherine Glasgow]], probable daughter of Thomas and Mary Ann, is a plausible candidate. She was aged 24 in October 1877 and reported three years' residence at Christchurch.<ref name="CatherineITM" /> That chronology is consistent with her still being in Ireland in 1871, but does not prove that she was the informant.

If the informant was Catherine, Daniel was her uncle, not her brother. An older sister, daughter, daughter-in-law, other niece or cousin remains possible.

=== Marriage, Daniel's mother and a possible second wife ===

No record has been found for the marriage of Thomas and Mary Ann.

No positive evidence has been found for another wife. Thomas and Mary Ann are named together in the 1842, 1843 and 1846 baptism entries and in the 1851 household.<ref name="RasharkinBaptisms" /><ref name="Census1851" />

Daniel Neely's marriage names his father but not his mother.<ref name="DanielMarriage" /> Mary Ann is therefore his probable mother, based on the established family and chronology, but the relationship remains unproved.

Daniel was born before June 1867 rather than about 1870. Mary Ann, born about 1821, would have been no more than about 45 or 46. The chronology does not require a second marriage.

=== Parents ===

A later family account identifies Thomas as a son of '''[[Glasgow-3904|Alexander Glasgow]]''' and '''[[Unknown-761034|Rosanna]]''' and states that Rosanna died about 23 October 1822.<ref name="FamilyAccount" />

No contemporary record naming Thomas's parents has been found. Both relationships should remain uncertain. Rosanna's maiden surname has sometimes been given as Shaw, but no source proving that surname has been identified.

=== Priority Research ===

* '''Priority 1 — identify the Coltrim Thomas:''' obtain Form A schedule 6 for house 7, Coltrim, Moneymore DED, 1901. Record every occupant, age, relationship, occupation and birthplace. This will determine whether the discarded circa-1823 estimate had any basis.

* '''Priority 1 — later baptisms:''' inspect PRONI MIC1P/292, Rasharkin Presbyterian baptisms, 1847–1867, for Nancy, Margaret, Catherine or Kate, Sarah, Alexander and Daniel Glasgow. Search Glasgow, Glasgo, Glascow, Glasco and Glassgow, with McCracken, McCrackin, McCraken and McCochrane variants. A Daniel entry naming Mary Ann would substantially resolve the second-marriage question; another mother would provide the first positive evidence for a second wife.<ref name="PRONIChurchGuide">Public Record Office of Northern Ireland, [https://www.proni.gov.uk/publications/proni-guide-church-records ''Guide to Church Records''], entries for Rasharkin Presbyterian MIC1P/292, Second Portglenone MIC1P/357, Boveedy MIC1P/18, First Kilrea MIC1P/87 and Second Kilrea MIC1P/20 (accessed 9 August 2026).</ref>

* '''Priority 1 — marriage:''' inspect PRONI MIC1P/357, Second Portglenone Presbyterian marriages, approximately 1838–1842, for Thomas Glasgow and Mary Ann McCracken variants. Also inspect its baptisms for Rose Ann about 1840–1841. If unsuccessful, continue with Boveedy MIC1P/18, First Kilrea MIC1P/87 and Second Kilrea MIC1P/20.<ref name="PRONIChurchGuide" />

* '''Priority 2 — Catherine:''' obtain Catherine Ekberg's original 1946 Victorian death certificate, registration 12550. Record both parents' full names, birthplace, duration in each colony or state and the informant. Compare these details with the 1877 New Zealand marriage notice and the 1871 Kate Glasgow informant.

* '''Priority 2 — Sarah:''' locate the marriage of Sarah Glasgow and Charles Taylor, probably before the birth of Ellen Taylor in January 1897. The marriage should state Sarah's age, residence and father.

* '''Priority 2 — land succession:''' obtain the original Griffith's Valuation page and map for Lisnagaver and follow Thomas's plot through the valuation-revision books to at least 1888. Determine whether it passed to Mary Ann, Daniel Neely or another relative, and compare the adjoining holdings of John and Alexander Glasgow.

* '''Priority 3 — deaths:''' obtain Thomas's original 1870 civil death return and the candidate 1914 death registration for Mary Ann. Record the informants, exact residences and stated relationships rather than relying only on indexes.

Robert's sister Mary is independently identified in a 15 September 1869 deed, registered 1 July 1870, as Mary Black, formerly Mary Glasgow. Her children, including John Black, Rose Ann Black, Jane Miller, Agnes Black and Thomasina Montgomery, conveyed interests under Robert's will to Mary Eno Glasgow; the deed also records their inheritance of their unmarried intestate sister Elizabeth Black's share.<ref name="MaryBlack1870">Grenville County land records, DGS 8200420, image 277, C298, dated 15 September 1869 and registered 1 July 1870, [https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSLG-LQTY-K original image].</ref>

The death of Thomas Glasgow was registered on 21 June 1870 in Ballymoney, aged 55.<ref>[https://geni.nidirect.gov.uk/search/death GRONI civil death index], Thomas Glasgow, 21 June 1870, aged 55, Ballymoney registration district, D/1870/31/1005/2/197.</ref>

== Biography ==

'''Thomas Glasgow''' was a farmer of Lisnagaver in Rasharkin parish, County Antrim. His exact birthplace and parents have not been proved.

Thomas was born about 1815. His age of 35 in the 1851 census and his reported age of 55 at death in 1870 independently place his birth in approximately 1814–1816.<ref name="Census1851">1851 Ireland Census, residents of house 37, Lisnagaver, Rasharkin, Kilconway, County Antrim, National Archives of Ireland, [http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1851/Antrim/Kilconway/Rasharkin/Lisnagaver/37/ household return] (accessed 12 May 2025).</ref><ref name="ThomasDeath">“Ireland, Deaths, 1864–1870,” digital film/folder 004024453; FHL microfilm 101716; record 2; packet G; {{FamilySearch Record|FGFD-PYC}}; Thomas Glasgow, died 21 June 1870, aged 55, Lisnagaver (accessed 12 May 2025). This is an indexed record; the original civil return remains to be obtained.</ref>

Thomas married '''[[McCracken-5681|Mary Ann McCracken]]'''. Their marriage date and congregation have not been identified. No located record names another wife.

=== Early family ===

A derivative transcription of the Rasharkin Presbyterian register records three early children:

* Eliza Glascaw, born 17 August 1842 at Moneyleck, daughter of Thomas and Mary Ann McCrackin;
* Eliza Glascow, born 17 October 1843 and baptised 5 November 1843, daughter of Thomas and Mary Ann McCracken of Lisnagaver;
* Jane Glascaw, born 29 April 1846, daughter of Thomas and Mary Ann McCracken of Lisnagaver.<ref name="RasharkinBaptisms">Barbara Braswell, transcript of Rasharkin Presbyterian Church baptisms, [https://genealogy.torrens.org/BannValley/church/RasharkinP/Baptisms_1834.html ''Baptisms, 1834–1846''], entries 162, 199 and 269 (accessed 9 August 2026). This is a derivative transcription; the controlling original register is PRONI MIC1P/292.</ref>

The two Eliza entries appear to concern separate children. The younger Eliza was still living in 1851. The older child probably died before the younger Eliza was named, but no death or burial record has been found. Her previously assigned death about 1845 is unproved.

|}

Daniel Neely's previously assigned birth about 1870 is incorrect. His age category at marriage proves that he was born before 28 June 1867.<ref name="DanielMarriage" /><ref name="GRONIFull" />

=== Brother Daniel Glasgow of Kilrea ===

Thomas was a brother of '''[[Glasgow-3896|Daniel Glasgow]]''', the watch and clock maker of Kilrea.

Daniel's registered will refers to:

<blockquote>“my late brother Thomas Glasgow” ... “my nephew Daniel Neely Glasgow”</blockquote>

The will was proved in 1871.<ref name="DanielWill">Public Record Office of Northern Ireland, [https://apps.proni.gov.uk/willscalendar_ie/willssearch.aspx Will Calendars], registered will of [[Glasgow-3896|Daniel Glasgow]] of Kilrea, proved 1871; refers to his late brother Thomas and nephew Daniel Neely Glasgow (accessed 17 July 2026).</ref>

Daniel Neely's marriage independently names his father as Thomas Glasgow, farmer, and gives his residence as Lisnagaver.<ref name="DanielMarriage" /> Together, the will and marriage identify Daniel of Kilrea as Thomas's brother and Daniel Neely as Thomas's son.

Daniel died at Kilrea on 16 October 1871, aged 75. The original civil return names '''Kate Glasgow, present at death, Kilrea''' as the informant.<ref name="DanielDeath">Ireland civil death return, no. 362, [[Glasgow-3896|Daniel Glasgow]], died 16 October 1871 at Kilrea, aged 75, widower and watchmaker; informant Kate Glasgow, present at death, Kilrea, [https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/deaths_returns/deaths_1871/020759/7282767.pdf original image] (accessed 9 August 2026).</ref> The return does not state Kate's relationship to Daniel.

=== Landholding ===

A transcript of Griffith's Valuation lists Thomas Glasgow, John Glasgow and Alexander Glasgow as occupiers at Lisnagaver.<ref name="Griffith">Griffith's Valuation transcript for Rasharkin parish, [https://www.irishgenealogyhub.com/antrim/griffiths-valuation/parish-of-rasharkin.php entries for Lisnagaver] (accessed 9 August 2026). This is a derivative transcript; the original valuation page, map and plot references remain to be checked.</ref>

Their presence in the same townland makes a relationship plausible but does not establish whether John and Alexander were Thomas's brothers, uncles, cousins or unrelated members of the same surname cluster. The original valuation page and subsequent revision books are required before plot succession can be used as relationship evidence.

=== Death ===

Thomas died at Lisnagaver on '''21 June 1870''', aged 55.<ref name="ThomasDeath" />

His reported age is consistent with the age recorded in 1851 and gives an estimated birth in about 1814 or 1815. His burial place has not been identified.

=== Brother Daniel and the Prescott connection ===

Thomas was a brother of [[Glasgow-3896|Daniel Glasgow]], watchmaker of Kilrea. Daniel's will calls Thomas his late brother and Daniel Neely Glasgow his nephew; Daniel Neely's marriage independently identifies Thomas as his father.<ref name="DanielWill">Public Record Office of Northern Ireland, [https://apps.proni.gov.uk/willscalendar_ie/willssearch.aspx Will Calendars], registered will of Daniel Glasgow of Kilrea, proved 1871 (accessed 17 July 2026).</ref><ref name="DanielMarriage" /> Daniel's death return names Kate Glasgow as informant but gives no relationship.<ref name="DanielDeath">Ireland civil death return no. 362, [[Glasgow-3896|Daniel Glasgow]], died 16 October 1871, Kilrea, [https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/deaths_returns/deaths_1871/020759/7282767.pdf original image] (accessed 9 August 2026).</ref>

The original deeds under the will of their brother Robert Glasgow of Prescott independently identify the same Thomas and Daniel. Robert's will, dated 9 October 1849, gives shares to his brothers Daniel, Samuel, John and Thomas, sister Mary, and collectively the children of brother James; it does not call James deceased.<ref name="RobertWill1849">Grenville County land records, DGS 8200419, image 35, registered will of Robert Glasgow of Prescott, dated 9 October 1849, [https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSLG-LWY9-S original image].</ref> Memorial 13 records the 30 October 1856 deed, registered 13 November 1856, between Robert's widow Jane and Samuel Glasgow, merchant, concerning Samuel's one undivided sixth share.<ref name="RobertWill1856">Grenville County land records, DGS 8200419, image 36, Memorial 13, dated 30 October 1856 and registered 13 November 1856, [https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSLG-LWYM-6 original image].</ref> Memorial 465, dated 30 July 1861 and registered 7 October, names Daniel of Kilrea, watchmaker, and wife Margaret, and Thomas of Lisnagaver, farmer, and wife Mary Ann, as transferors to Samuel of two undivided sixth interests under Robert's will.<ref name="RobertWill1861">Grenville County land records, DGS 8200419, image 240, Memorial 465, registered 7 October 1861, printed p. 397, [https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSLG-LWB8-D original image].</ref> The deeds establish Thomas, Daniel, Samuel and Robert as brothers; they do not identify their parents.

== Research Notes ==

=== Former merge and the Coltrim census ===

A formerly separate WikiTree profile, '''Glasgow-2994''', was merged into this profile. Its estimated birth about 1823 has no identified contemporary source and conflicts with the approximately 1815 birth indicated by Thomas's 1851 and 1870 ages.

The legacy link attached to the merged material referred to a 1901 household at Coltrim, Moneymore DED, County Londonderry.

The surviving Form B1 confirms that another Thomas Glasgow was the householder at house 7 in Coltrim and refers to Form A schedule 6. It appears to record four occupants, but it does not give Thomas's age, family relationships, birthplace or occupation.<ref name="ColtrimB1">1901 Ireland Census, Form B1, Coltrim townland, Moneymore DED, South Derry, County Londonderry, house 7, householder Thomas Glasgow, Form A schedule 6, National Archives of Ireland, [https://nationalarchives.ie/collections/search-the-census/view-pdf/?doc=nai000629314 original image] (accessed 9 August 2026).</ref>

Since the Lisnagaver Thomas died in 1870, the Coltrim return belongs to another man. It does not establish that the Coltrim man was born about 1823. Glasgow-2994 should not be recreated as a separate person unless Form A schedule 6 or another original record establishes his age and family.

=== Kate Glasgow at Daniel's death ===

Daniel's civil death return names Kate Glasgow as the informant and says that she was present at his death.<ref name="DanielDeath" /> It does not call her his sister and does not state any relationship.

[[Glasgow-3976|Catherine Glasgow]], probable daughter of Thomas and Mary Ann, is a plausible candidate. She was aged 24 in October 1877 and reported three years' residence at Christchurch.<ref name="CatherineITM" /> That chronology is consistent with her still being in Ireland in 1871, but does not prove that she was the informant.

If the informant was Catherine, Daniel was her uncle, not her brother. An older sister, daughter, daughter-in-law, other niece or cousin remains possible.

=== Marriage, Daniel's mother and a possible second wife ===

No record has been found for the marriage of Thomas and Mary Ann.

No positive evidence has been found for another wife. Thomas and Mary Ann are named together in the 1842, 1843 and 1846 baptism entries and in the 1851 household.<ref name="RasharkinBaptisms" /><ref name="Census1851" />

Daniel Neely's marriage names his father but not his mother.<ref name="DanielMarriage" /> Mary Ann is therefore his probable mother, based on the established family and chronology, but the relationship remains unproved.

Daniel was born before June 1867 rather than about 1870. Mary Ann, born about 1821, would have been no more than about 45 or 46. The chronology does not require a second marriage.

=== Parents ===

A later family account identifies Thomas as a son of '''[[Glasgow-3904|Alexander Glasgow]]''' and '''[[Unknown-761034|Rosanna]]''' and states that Rosanna died about 23 October 1822.<ref name="FamilyAccount" />

No contemporary record naming Thomas's parents has been found. Both relationships should remain uncertain. Rosanna's maiden surname has sometimes been given as Shaw, but no source proving that surname has been identified.

=== Priority Research ===

* '''Priority 1 — identify the Coltrim Thomas:''' obtain Form A schedule 6 for house 7, Coltrim, Moneymore DED, 1901. Record every occupant, age, relationship, occupation and birthplace. This will determine whether the discarded circa-1823 estimate had any basis.

* '''Priority 1 — later baptisms:''' inspect PRONI MIC1P/292, Rasharkin Presbyterian baptisms, 1847–1867, for Nancy, Margaret, Catherine or Kate, Sarah, Alexander and Daniel Glasgow. Search Glasgow, Glasgo, Glascow, Glasco and Glassgow, with McCracken, McCrackin, McCraken and McCochrane variants. A Daniel entry naming Mary Ann would substantially resolve the second-marriage question; another mother would provide the first positive evidence for a second wife.<ref name="PRONIChurchGuide">Public Record Office of Northern Ireland, [https://www.proni.gov.uk/publications/proni-guide-church-records ''Guide to Church Records''], entries for Rasharkin Presbyterian MIC1P/292, Second Portglenone MIC1P/357, Boveedy MIC1P/18, First Kilrea MIC1P/87 and Second Kilrea MIC1P/20 (accessed 9 August 2026).</ref>

* '''Priority 1 — marriage:''' inspect PRONI MIC1P/357, Second Portglenone Presbyterian marriages, approximately 1838–1842, for Thomas Glasgow and Mary Ann McCracken variants. Also inspect its baptisms for Rose Ann about 1840–1841. If unsuccessful, continue with Boveedy MIC1P/18, First Kilrea MIC1P/87 and Second Kilrea MIC1P/20.<ref name="PRONIChurchGuide" />

* '''Priority 2 — Catherine:''' obtain Catherine Ekberg's original 1946 Victorian death certificate, registration 12550. Record both parents' full names, birthplace, duration in each colony or state and the informant. Compare these details with the 1877 New Zealand marriage notice and the 1871 Kate Glasgow informant.

* '''Priority 2 — Sarah:''' locate the marriage of Sarah Glasgow and Charles Taylor, probably before the birth of Ellen Taylor in January 1897. The marriage should state Sarah's age, residence and father.

* '''Priority 2 — land succession:''' obtain the original Griffith's Valuation page and map for Lisnagaver and follow Thomas's plot through the valuation-revision books to at least 1888. Determine whether it passed to Mary Ann, Daniel Neely or another relative, and compare the adjoining holdings of John and Alexander Glasgow.

* '''Priority 3 — deaths:''' obtain Thomas's original 1870 civil death return and the candidate 1914 death registration for Mary Ann. Record the informants, exact residences and stated relationships rather than relying only on indexes.

Robert's sister Mary is independently identified in a 15 September 1869 deed, registered 1 July 1870, as Mary Black, formerly Mary Glasgow. Her children, including John Black, Rose Ann Black, Jane Miller, Agnes Black and Thomasina Montgomery, conveyed interests under Robert's will to Mary Eno Glasgow; the deed also records their inheritance of their unmarried intestate sister Elizabeth Black's share.<ref name="MaryBlack1870">Grenville County land records, DGS 8200420, image 277, C298, dated 15 September 1869 and registered 1 July 1870, [https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSLG-LQTY-K original image].</ref>

The death of Thomas Glasgow was registered on 21 June 1870 in Ballymoney, aged 55.<ref>[https://geni.nidirect.gov.uk/search/death GRONI civil death index], Thomas Glasgow, 21 June 1870, aged 55, Ballymoney registration district, D/1870/31/1005/2/197.</ref>
