Compatible WikiTree candidates

  • Glasgow-3105 — Current public profile compared; Didup James is an adult in the 11 June 1674 Irvine inquest. Glasgow-3969 has only a BEFORE 1670 adulthood estimate from a 1691 Beith marriage, so it remains compatible with being adult in 1674. Glasgow-3172 is a shipmaster of the Blessing of Saltcoats in 1667, a substantive north-Ayrshire coastal association absent from the old generic comparison; Belfast maritime work does not conflict with an Irvine inquest. The Glasgow 1645 child 3971, Polwarth husband 3107 and Campbeltown father 1496 are also chronological possibilities. The inquest supplies no age, occupation or kin to distinguish them. Glasgow-3105 is a particularly relevant Kilwinning candidate. Its current biography explicitly withdraws 1670 as a documented birth: it is only an adult-status estimate from fatherhood in 1689. An older birth compatible with the 1674 adult inquest is permitted; remove the old too-young exclusion. Profile birth 1670-00-00, death 0000-00-00; qualifiers retained in the review.

  • Current live biography says 1670 is only an unsupported estimate from 1689 fatherhood; no independent birth record excludes an adult inquest role in 1674.
  • Baptism in 1689 is after adult 1674 occurrence.
  • Baptism in 1707 is after adult 1674 occurrence.
  • Further source and existing-profile review completed 2026-09-30; retain compatible candidates unless a concrete conflict excludes them.
