Glasgow Mathy Burgesses 1554

• mathie-glasgow-burgh-witnesses-1554 — David Mathy and Mergaret Androsoune, expressly his spouse, bought a barn at Powdrait, Glasgow, on 3 February 1550/51. David Mathy and Robert Glesgw were expressly fellow burgesses witnessing a sasine on 10 May 1554; David also witnessed an act on 4 July 1554. The name and city make the purchaser and witness probably the same man, but the later acts do not repeat the spouse. No kinship with Robert is stated. David Matthew-330 is a weak compatible variant candidate: its only 1701 death assertion is GEDCOM-derived, so it cannot be excluded. The complete sourced draft remains on HOLD against that candidate, with purchaser/witness identity qualified. Matthew-330

• Public existing-profile search and biography review completed 2026-09-30. Missing fields or an unproved extra bridge do not exclude a compatible person.
• Spouse Curley-37 biography records an 1883 Victoria marriage; a different generation.
• Spouse born 1911; a different generation.
• Present 1701 death cannot fit an adult 1554 lifespan; the date is sourced only to a GEDCOM, so this fails the current chronology without claiming a proved death date.
• Further source and existing-profile review completed 2026-09-30; retain compatible candidates unless a concrete conflict excludes them.

== Biography ==
David Mathy and Mergaret Androsoune, expressly his spouse, bought a barn at Powdrait, Glasgow, from John Hawstoune on 3 February 1550/51. The property adjoined Peter Adam’s land west, James Hyndschaw’s east, the street north, and Malindin or burn south.<ref>Robert Renwick, ed., ''Abstracts of Protocols of the Town Clerks of Glasgow'', vol.1, protocol71, [https://archive.org/details/abstractsofproto01glas/page/n60/mode/1up p.27]; page image inspected 30 September 2026.</ref>

A David Mathy was expressly a fellow Glasgow burgess with Robert Glesgw among witnesses to John Androsoune’s sasine on 10 May 1554. The same-day act in protocol184 had the same witnesses.<ref>Renwick, ''Abstracts of Protocols'', vol.1, protocols183–184, [https://archive.org/details/abstractsofproto01glas/page/n96/mode/1up p.63]; page image inspected 30 September 2026.</ref> David also witnessed a transaction on 4 July 1554.<ref>Renwick, ''Abstracts of Protocols'', vol.1, protocol189, [https://archive.org/details/abstractsofproto01glas/page/n98/mode/1up p.65]; page image inspected 30 September 2026.</ref>

== Research Notes ==
The purchaser and later witness are probably the same man by name and Glasgow property/civic context, but the 1554 acts do not name his wife. No inspected entry calls him kin of Robert Glesgw or names his parents. The 1550/51 transaction proves the documentary marriage, not an existing profile identity for either spouse. Margaret Anderson-3241 is a sparse compatible spouse candidate, with unknown dates and unsupported family; identity remains unresolved. The companion subject draft records her separately with the same qualification. [[Matthew-330|David Matthew]] remains a weak compatible variant candidate because its 1701 death is an unsupported GEDCOM field; do not exclude it or create another David solely from that field.

Mergaret Androsoune was expressly described as the spouse of David Mathy when the couple bought a barn at Powdrait, Glasgow, from John Hawstoune on 3 February 1550/51.<ref>Robert Renwick, ed., ''Abstracts of Protocols of the Town Clerks of Glasgow'', vol.1, protocol71, [https://archive.org/details/abstractsofproto01glas/page/n60/mode/1up p.27]; page image inspected 30 September 2026.

== Research Notes ==
The record names the spouses and their lawful heirs collectively; it does not identify any children or parents. It gives no birth or death date. [[Anderson-3241|Margaret Anderson]] is a sparse compatible candidate, not a proved match. Her unsupported John Kelman spouse does not establish a conflict. The David Mathy burgess witness in 1554 is probably the same husband by name and city, but the later acts do not name Mergaret. Keep the household and profile identity qualifications explicit.
