Compatible WikiTree candidates

  • Herbison-475 — Current public profile compared; Name, occupation fisher and south-side Bridgegait tenure agree with the 1562/63 spouse-defined fisher. The 1573 fisher associates and 1575 former tenement sustain the local property/network context; no contradictory craft or household is known. Treat the 1581/82 boundary as a probable later occurrence, not proof of continued life or of Isobella survival. Profile birth 1530-00-00, death 1573-12-19; qualifiers retained in the review.
