Larne Title And Witnesses

• larne-newtown-title-1779-1832 — The live biographies identify two distinct adult Larne men: James Glasgow-1509, ropemaker (1737–1802), and James Glasgow-3991, probable tanner (about 1748–1812). Both survived until the 1779 lease. The separate 1768 messuage names a ropemaker party and a farmer witness, whose roles require separate comparison. Glasgow-1509 is the leading compatible party. No source names the farmer witness's relatives or identifies the 1779 lessee. The 1832 renewal does not establish Anne or Jane as James’s daughters. Keep the 1768 ropemaker party, farmer witness and 1779 lessee roles separate. Jane, wife of Glasgow-3991, died in 1820 and cannot be the 1832 lessee. Glasgow-1509, Glasgow-3991
