== Biography ==
Benjamin Glasgow, Esq., surgeon, formerly of Vera Cruz, Mexico, died in the prime of life at New Orleans on 26 November last, according to a notice published 20 May 1834. He was son of the late Mr Robert Glasgow of Cookstown, County Tyrone.<ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390554297/ Belfast News-Letter, 20 May 1834, p. 3, Benjamin Glasgow death notice], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref> A Dublin notice published 23 May repeats the surgeon, New Orleans and father details.<ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/1050049974/ Freeman’s Journal and Daily Commercial Advertiser, 23 May 1834, p. 4, Benjamin Glasgow death notice], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

== Research Notes ==
The inferred death year is 1833. No age or mother is given. The documented father–son relationship is certain; profile identification remains on HOLD. Glasgow-3412 is a strong compatible candidate. The University of Glasgow index lists Benjamin Glasgow’s Master of Surgery in 1826, without father, birthplace or overseas details.<ref>[https://universitystory.gla.ac.uk/people?search=&surname=Glas&forename=Benjamin University of Glasgow Story, Benjamin Glasgow, Master of Surgery, graduation 1826], official index checked 4 October 2026.</ref> This surgeon cannot be the mill Benjamin living in 1858/1870 or John’s merchant son living in 1856.

[[Glasgow-3412|Glasgow-3412]]: Live profile checked 4 October 2026: birth 1805 and surgery graduation 1826, no parents or death. The official University of Glasgow index independently confirms Benjamin Glasgow’s Master of Surgery in 1826, but gives no birth year/place, father or overseas career. Exact name, profession and chronology make a strong compatible candidate; the Cookstown/New Orleans bridge remains unproved.

Seek 1826 matriculation/degree papers with age, father or origin, and 1833 New Orleans death/burial or Vera Cruz medical records. Resolve identity before adding death or a father to Glasgow-3412.

== Biography ==
Robert Glasgow of Cookstown, County Tyrone, was already deceased when his son Benjamin, a surgeon formerly of Vera Cruz, was named in a 20 May 1834 death notice. Benjamin died at New Orleans on 26 November last.<ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390554297/ Belfast News-Letter, 20 May 1834, p. 3, Benjamin Glasgow death notice], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref><ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/1050049974/ Freeman’s Journal and Daily Commercial Advertiser, 23 May 1834, p. 4, Benjamin Glasgow death notice], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

== Research Notes ==
This is a connected father–son evidence draft, not an invented parent. “Late” dates Robert’s death only before publication, not necessarily before his son’s death. Robert-2656’s 1856 death and the 1858 testimony naming a father who died 1856 conflict with this father’s 1834 death bound. Coltrim Robert-3941 remains possible by chronology but unidentified. John-2058’s parents and any uncle relationship are not established.

[[Glasgow-3941|Glasgow-3941]]: Coltrim occupier documented 1820–1831; reported birth before 1776. Death after 1831 but byMay 1834 is chronologically possible. No surgeon-son or Cookstown bridge is known; do not attach him merely from age/locality.

Check Cookstown/Drapers’ Company leases and pre 1834 probate, and the surgeon’s university/death records for a specific family bridge.

A King’s Arms Inn, Cookstown, notice dated 12 October 1836 directs applications to Mr Robert Glasgow of Cookstown for a letting from 1 November, including about ten acres of land convenient to the town.<ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390551780/ Belfast News-Letter, 18 October 1836, p. 3, King’s Arms Inn letting], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref> A Cookstown Academy advertisement dated 28 October 1840 names Mr Robert Glasgow as chairman of the superintending committee and a contact for applicants for a classical/commercial teacher.<ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390563103/ Belfast News-Letter, 30 October 1840, p. 2, Cookstown Academy], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

== Research Notes ==
Consolidated same-name locality account; the two roles may belong to one man, but no direct identifying bridge is present. Do not call the letting contact the owner or innkeeper, or substitute “Sunday school” for Academy. Association with the mill partner remains qualified; the 1836 contact is distinct from the father already described as late in 1834.

[[Glasgow-2656|Glasgow-2656]]: Tullyveagh/Cookstown Robert (c. 1798–1856) fits the living 1836/1840 contacts and is a strong candidate for the separate mill father who died 1856. No inn or Academy bridge proves these assignments.

[[Glasgow-3941|Glasgow-3941]]: Coltrim adult occupier through 1831 is chronologically compatible with the 1836/1840 contacts; no inn, Academy or residence bridge identifies him. This alternative cannot simultaneously be assumed to be the father already dead in 1834.

Read subsequent letting/Academy notices, leases, directories and mill title records for occupation, relatives or address. Do not create a new person for each notice.

Master Benjamin Glasgow of Cookstown is listed for 0 pounds 1 shilling 0 pence towards the support of scholars in the agricultural school in a June 1850 newspaper report.<ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390559842/ Belfast News-Letter, 28 June 1850, p. 2, agricultural-school scholars’ support], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

== Research Notes ==
The source documents support for scholars, not attendance at the school. “Master” is not an exact age. The later Cookstown merchant and mill accounts are possible comparisons but remain unassigned; the surgeon who died 1833 is excluded.

[[Glasgow-2059|Glasgow-2059]]: Cookstown merchant son of John, reported born c. 1835 and died 8 February 1870. About 15 in 1850 fits “Master”; notice names no father, so identity is unproved.

[[Glasgow-2566|Glasgow-2566]]: Historical Benjamin reported born c. 1840, later Killycurragh. About 10 in 1850 is compatible with the address “Master”; age and family are unstated in the donation notice. No identity assignment is made.

Inspect the complete report heading and school donor records for fuller identity; compare Cookstown 1850 households before assigning the donation to a profile.

== Biography ==
Samuel Glasgow, described as an intelligent farmer examined at Moneymore, was quoted in a 19 March 1845 discussion of Ulster tenant right. He argued for secure tenure and protection against rent charged on improvements and described seeing a tenant reclaim heather land on Sir Thomas Staples’s property in his neighbourhood.<ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/1050103241/ Freeman’s Journal and Daily Commercial Advertiser, 19 March 1845, p. 1, Ulster tenant-right discussion], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

== Research Notes ==
Moneymore is the place of examination; it does not establish his home. The quoted “last twelvemonth” is relative to an unspecified examination date. Samuel-2054 and Samuel-1698 fit farmer/Cookstown comparisons; the regional Lisnagaver weaver Samuel-2908 is a weaker possibility, not a proved match. No family relationship is stated.

[[Glasgow-2054|Glasgow-2054]]: Live biography checked 4 October 2026: Gortin farmer, reported c. 1792–1865, with later Griffith’s/revision holdings near Cookstown. Occupation, chronology and district fit; quoted testimony states no Gortin or family link. Profile-cited land records are comparison leads, not newly inspected originals.

[[Glasgow-1698|Glasgow-1698]]: Live biography checked 4 October 2026: Killycurragh farmer, reported c. 1800–1857, with will/probate account. Compatible occupation and Cookstown district; no Moneymore testimony bridge is documented.

[[Glasgow-2908|Glasgow-2908]]: Public historical catalogue: c. 1790–1875, County Londonderry birth, later Lisnagaver census/death. Civil death describes a weaver. A weaker regional comparison; later trade and missing Moneymore details do not alone prove exclusion. No Lisnagaver connection is claimed for the 1845 witness.

Find the original land-inquiry examination containing his residence, date and holding; compare Gortin and Killycurragh leases/valuation and the Lisnagaver census. Keep profile families unchanged.

James Glasgow was plaintiff against Maxwell Lepper and Clotworthy Dobbin in a Court of Exchequer report headed Dublin, 22 June 1820. The defendants’ request to rescind the process of contempt was refused with costs and liberty for the plaintiff to continue process. George Frederick Moulds was his agent.<ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/61258711/ The Irishman, 30 June 1820, p. 2, Court of Exchequer, Dublin, 22 June], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

== Research Notes ==
A separate report lists James Glasgow on the petty jury for Friday 1 August 1828. He is a juror, not one of the accused in the following riot-and-assault report. The name is James Glasgow, not the automated index’s combined William James Glasgow. No residence, occupation or kin is stated. This remains an unassigned legal occurrence; identity with the 1820 Exchequer plaintiff is unproved.<ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390549197/ Belfast News-Letter, 5 August 1828, p.4, petty jury, Friday 1 August], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>


This is a procedural report, not a final judgment or proof of James’s residence. Identity with the Belfast tobacco seller and regional namesakes is unproved. Associates are recorded in context, without inferred kinship.

[[Glasgow-3986|Glasgow-3986]]: Regional historical namesake, reported 1773–1831, Larne. Chronology fits; no court, Belfast or tobacco bridge. Profile fields are leads.

[[Glasgow-3444|Glasgow-3444]]: Regional historical namesake, reported 1776–1866, Cookstown. Chronology fits; no court or tobacco bridge. Profile fields are leads.

[[Glasgow-2981|Glasgow-2981]]: Antrim namesake, reported c. 1801–c. 1865, with James junior at Ballybogy in 1825. Adult chronology is compatible; no Belfast seller or court bridge. Neither missing trade nor absent family fields excludes him.

Find the court pleadings/case papers naming his address, occupation and cause of action; compare the Belfast seller’s business records.

James Glasgow offered steamed and unstemmed leaf tobacco for sale in a notice dated Belfast, 9 March 1822.<ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/61259036/ The Irishman, 15 March 1822, p. 2, tobacco advertisement dated 9 March], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref> A 20 August 1822 notice directed applications to him at Mr James M’Master’s.<ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/61260054/ The Irishman, 23 August 1822, p. 3, tobacco advertisement dated 20 August], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref> A 27 May 1823 advertisement offered 13 hogsheads of leaf tobacco and located samples at Mr James M’Master’s, North Street.<ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/61261904/ The Irishman, 30 May 1823, p. 3, tobacco advertisement dated 27 May], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

== Research Notes ==
An auction notice describes the large shop and stores at No.32 Rosemary Street, Belfast, as formerly occupied by Mr James Glasgow. The lease interest was offered for sale on 1 April 1828; the notice dated 21 March gives 34 years unexpired from 1 November next and £30 late Irish currency yearly rent. Former occupancy is explicit; ownership, trade and residence are not. The surname is certain, but identity with the 1822–23 tobacco seller, William the grocer or another James remains unproved.<ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390544933/ Belfast News-Letter, 1 April 1828, p.3, auction of shop and stores, No.32 Rosemary Street], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>


The repeated name, trade and contact support one seller account. No age or relatives are stated. North Street is the sample/contact location, not explicitly James’s home or owned premises. Do not connect him to William the Belfast grocer or the 1820 plaintiff merely by surname or town. Regional compatible profiles remain unresolved.

[[Glasgow-3986|Glasgow-3986]]: Regional historical namesake, reported 1773–1831, Larne. Chronology fits; no court, Belfast or tobacco bridge. Profile fields are leads.

[[Glasgow-3444|Glasgow-3444]]: Regional historical namesake, reported 1776–1866, Cookstown. Chronology fits; no court or tobacco bridge. Profile fields are leads.

[[Glasgow-2981|Glasgow-2981]]: Antrim namesake, reported c. 1801–c. 1865, with James junior at Ballybogy in 1825. Adult chronology is compatible; no Belfast seller or court bridge. Neither missing trade nor absent family fields excludes him.

Search Belfast directories, merchant partnerships and later advertisements for an address, kin or probate bridge. Check the separate 1820 court plaintiff before consolidation.

== Research Notes ==
Adam Dickie Glasgow-1781 (1815–1863), Presbyterian minister with a documented Belfast period, is the strongest compatible profile. Repeated Adam D. and the Institution setting support a consolidated education/teaching account; continuity into the Berry Street ministry is a supported inference. The inspected notices do not give Dickie in full, age, parents or later migration. The older Inishrush Adams remain separate namesake comparisons; no family link is upgraded.

[[Glasgow-1781|Glasgow-1781]]: Strong compatible candidate: 1815 Ballymena birth, Presbyterian ministry and earlier Belfast period; live biography checked 4 October 2026. College and ordination records should test the full-name bridge.

[[Glasgow-3373|Glasgow-3373]]: Born 7 July 1804; chronologically compatible namesake, later in Illinois. No institution/ministry bridge is established; missing corroboration is not an exclusion.

[[Glasgow-1622|Glasgow-1622]]: Born before 1794; father and farmer in the 1851 Inishrush marriage evidence. A weaker namesake comparison with no institution/ministry bridge.

[[Glasgow-3902|Glasgow-3902]]: Inishrush landholder, c.1758–1844, distinct documented household. A much older namesake comparison, not an assigned student or minister; no unsupported family bridge.

Check Institution admissions/staff records and Berry Street call and ordination minutes for the full middle name, parents and earlier residence. Keep the already documented Ballymena sibling relationship separate from the newspaper assignment.

== Biography ==
Adam D. Glasgow of Broughshane appears in the Royal Belfast Academical Institution school prizes in June 1830 and Belfast College examinations reported in May 1831. The 1831 report also names James Glasgow, Institution, in voluntary advanced mathematical examinations. Adam Dickie Glasgow-1781 and James McClure Glasgow-1780 are strong compatible candidates. James’s checked live biography names the Institution and mathematics, but its underlying education source was not newly read. The newspaper gives no ages or parents and does not call these men brothers. Their already documented sibling relationship is a comparison, not a new relationship upgrade. <ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390569859/ Belfast News-Letter, 29 June 1830, p.3, Royal Belfast Academical Institution School Department], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref> <ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390545285/ Belfast News-Letter, 6 May 1831, p.3, Belfast College report dated 30 April], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

The 2 May 1828 Belfast Institution College Department awards list Jas. Glasgow, Broughshane, for proficiency in the junior mathematical class, and James Glasgow for daily examinations and exercises in Logic and Belles Lettres. The 1 May 1830 Belfast College report awards James Glasgow, Institution, senior-course voluntary mathematics and the premium on the third book of Locke’s Essay. The shared name and institution support a student sequence, with the two 1828 forms probably one student. Glasgow-1780 is a strong compatible candidate; none of these passages gives age, full middle name, parents or spouse. No sibling relationship is established by the notices. <ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390546969/ Belfast News-Letter, 9 May 1828, p.3, Belfast Institution College Department, awards on 2 May], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref> <ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390568607/ Belfast News-Letter, 7 May 1830, p.2, Belfast College report dated 1 May], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

James Glasgow, Institution, received the silver medal for general-certificate examinations in mathematics and natural philosophy at the College Department awards on 28 April 1832. On 11 December 1834 pupils presented Rev. James Glasgow with a watch on his resignation as principal assistant in the Institution’s Mathematical and Mercantile School. He was an assistant, not its principal. The institution, mathematical achievement, teaching and subsequent Castledawson ministry strongly support the James McClure Glasgow-1780 attribution; the notices do not supply his middle name or parents. The Society secretary comparison remains unproved. The 1834 newspaper’s Rev. title precedes the profile-stated 14 December licence; inspect the Presbytery register before changing that separate date. <ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390568466/ Belfast News-Letter, 4 May 1832, p.3, Institution College Department awards of 28 April], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref><ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390561231/ Belfast News-Letter, 12 December 1834, p.2, Royal Institution—Mr Glasgow, assistant resignation], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

Castledawson’s unanimous call to Rev. James Glasgow had already been reported by 10 July 1835. His ordination to its pastoral charge took place on Tuesday 6 October 1835, reported on 16 October. The current James McClure Glasgow-1780 biography labels 6 October as his call date; a sourced correction is prepared locally. These ministry details converge with the checked profile career. The exact call date is unstated; 6 October is explicitly the ordination date. Rev. Mr Wallace of Rasharkin preached, Rev. Mr Rogers of Kilrea handled the defence of Presbyterian ordination, and Rev. Mr Elder of Finvoy offered the ordination prayer. Their presence is not kinship or proof that James lived in Rasharkin/Kilrea/Finvoy. No live edit was made. <ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390571333/ Belfast News-Letter, 10 July 1835, p.2, Castledawson unanimous call], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref><ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390573717/ Belfast News-Letter, 16 October 1835, p.2, Castledawson ordination on 6 October], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

Margaret Jane, infant daughter of Rev. James Glasgow, missionary to Kattywar for the Presbyterian Church in Ireland, died at Rajkote, East Indies, on 11 June 1841, aged two months and 26 days. This agrees with Margaret Jane Glasgow-2898’s current death date and its 16 March birth chronology. Strong matching name, father, place and date support Glasgow-2898 and her already attached father Glasgow-1780. The notice does not name her mother or birthplace. Mary Wightman-3457 remains a mother hypothesis for this child pending a direct record or documented family bridge; the already recorded father is corroborated, not a new uncertain-to-certain relationship upgrade. <ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390562197/ Belfast News-Letter, 10 September 1841, p.2, Margaret Jane Glasgow death notice], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

At Surat, East Indies, the wife of Rev. James Glasgow, Presbyterian Church in Ireland missionary, gave birth to a daughter on 22 February, reported on 11 April 1848. The child is unnamed; Annie Coulson Glasgow-2901, whose checked profile gives 1848 in India, is a compatible candidate. 1848 is inferred from the contemporary notice’s February date. Neither child nor mother is named. The notice cannot alone make Annie’s exact birth date/place certain or establish Mary Wightman’s motherhood of another child. Her existing father/mother connections are not changed. <ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390546223/ Belfast News-Letter, 11 April 1848, p.2, Surat birth on 22 February], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

== Research Notes ==
James McClure Glasgow-1780 (1805–1890) remains a strong compatible candidate. His checked live biography names Institution education and mathematics. New originals extend the student trail to 1828, where Jas. Glasgow is associated with Broughshane, and to the 1830 mathematics/logic awards. The two 1828 name forms probably name one student; the shared Institution supports later continuity. No full middle name, age or relatives is stated. The Society secretary is compared separately; neither identity nor siblinghood is made certain by these notices.

[[Glasgow-1780|Glasgow-1780]]: Strong compatible candidate: current biography explicitly records Institution education and mathematics, with 1834 licensing. His documented brother is Adam Dickie Glasgow. The dated newspaper occurrence remains a qualified assignment.

Check Institution admission/examination registers for full name, age and home; read the primary education source behind Glasgow-1780’s biography. Seek a Society membership link before assigning the secretary.

James Glasgow of Larne is no.16 among persons applying to register freeholds at the Carrickfergus General Quarter Sessions on 13 January 1831. His December 1830 entry describes houses and land in Upper Glenarm, townland of Larne, with a yearly value of £10. This is an application published on 24 December 1830, not proof that registration succeeded. Glasgow-3986 is the strongest compatible local candidate, but the notice gives no age, occupation, relatives or bridge to the 1795 merchant or 1797 junior. It does not connect Larne to Lisnagaver. <ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390574399/ Belfast News-Letter, 24 December 1830, p.3, County Antrim freehold-registration applications], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

This is an application published on 24 December 1830, not proof that registration succeeded. Glasgow-3986 is the strongest compatible local candidate, but the notice gives no age, occupation, relatives or bridge to the 1795 merchant or 1797 junior. It does not connect Larne to Lisnagaver. The older Larne tanner Glasgow-3991 died in 1812 according to a published monument transcription; the ropemaker Glasgow-1509 has a reported 1802 death with probate-index support. These older accounts are not assigned to the applicant. The notice adds no proof to Glasgow-3986’s possible parentage or connection to Alexander at Lisnagaver.

[[Glasgow-3986|Glasgow-3986]]: Strong compatible candidate: reported 1773–1831 Larne, with provisional 1795 merchant and 1797 junior records. Same-town adult chronology fits; no age, occupation or kin bridge in the application.

James Glasgow and Walter Moffat are named secretaries announcing the Belfast Juvenile Society’s sixth annual meeting at Rev. Dr Cooke’s May Street meeting-house on Monday 15 November 1830. In March 1831 Rev. Walter Moffatt and Mr James Glasgow attended a Knockbracken meeting as the Society’s deputation; Rev. Thomas Houston chaired it.

Margaret Jane, infant daughter of Rev. James Glasgow, missionary to Kattywar for the Presbyterian Church in Ireland, died at Rajkote, East Indies, on 11 June 1841, aged two months and 26 days. This agrees with Margaret Jane Glasgow-2898’s current death date and its 16 March birth chronology. <ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390562197/ Belfast News-Letter, 10 September 1841, p.2, Margaret Jane Glasgow death notice], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

== Research Notes ==
Strong matching name, father, place and date support Glasgow-2898 and her already attached father Glasgow-1780. The notice does not name her mother or birthplace. Mary Wightman-3457 remains a mother hypothesis for this child pending a direct record or documented family bridge; the already recorded father is corroborated, not a new uncertain-to-certain relationship upgrade.

Find a mission baptism/birth or family register naming her mother; do not infer it solely from her father’s marriage or sister’s attached mother.

At Surat, East Indies, the wife of Rev. James Glasgow, Presbyterian Church in Ireland missionary, gave birth to a daughter on 22 February, reported on 11 April 1848. The child is unnamed; Annie Coulson Glasgow-2901, whose checked profile gives 1848 in India, is a compatible candidate. <ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390546223/ Belfast News-Letter, 11 April 1848, p.2, Surat birth on 22 February], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

== Research Notes ==
1848 is inferred from the contemporary notice’s February date. Neither child nor mother is named. The notice cannot alone make Annie’s exact birth date/place certain or establish Mary Wightman’s motherhood of another child. Her existing father/mother connections are not changed.

Read the mission birth/baptism/family register or an independent named childhood record to connect Annie to this 22 February Surat notice.

James Glasgow, Esq., a native of Larne, died on 13 June 1839 at Bank Hall, Wakenham, Demerara, according to an August Belfast notice. Wakenham is retained as printed; the modern place identification requires a separate check. <ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390552249/ Belfast News-Letter, 13 August 1839, p.3, James Glasgow of Larne, Demerara death], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

== Research Notes ==
No age, parents, spouse or occupation is stated. Larne describes origin, not necessarily his last Irish residence. The 1830 Larne freeholder and earlier merchant are unproved comparisons. Known Larne profiles Glasgow-3986 (reported death 1831), Glasgow-3991 (1812) and Glasgow-1509 (1802) conflict in death chronology and are not assigned to this death. Check their underlying dates before proposing a correction or duplicate.

Search Larne emigration, Demerara estate/probate and Bank Hall records; verify existing Larne death-source dates. A namesake link to the 1830 freeholder is unproved.

John Glasgow, explicitly called a merchant at Cookstown, appears among John Cassell coffee agents on 30 September 1848, and again in February 1849. A separate 2 February 1849 advertisement appoints him there as agent for the Russian Company’s Caravan Tea and Arabian Coffee. This extends the inspected Cookstown agency sequence to 1848–1850. <ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/1256974148/ The Sligo Champion, 30 September 1848, p.3, John Cassell coffee agents], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref><ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390559166/ Belfast News-Letter, 2 February 1849, p.3, Russian Company tea and coffee agents], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref><ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390559823/ Belfast News-Letter, 20 February 1849, p.3, John Cassell coffee agents], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref><ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/1257358494/ Impartial Reporter and Farmers’ Journal, 22 February 1849, p.3, John Cassell coffee agents], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

== Research Notes ==
Glasgow-2058 is compatible by name, Cookstown district and the merchant occupation independently recorded in Benjamin-2059’s 1856 marriage. None of these advertisements names relatives, age or street address. Repeated agent lists are advertisements for one trading role, not independent family proofs. John’s parents remain unknown. Glasgow-1968 remains a weaker comparison: his family histories give migration to Michigan in 1844 or 1848; the Drummeen tithe and 1850/1851 probate leads are not securely assigned to him, and probate year is not a death date.

Identify the merchant’s street address through directories, licences, deeds and probate. Seek a record linking the agent directly to Benjamin-2059 or Henry-1735 before assigning him to their father.

The 16 August 1831 declaration lists Robert Glasgow and John Glasgow among freeholders of the barony printed Loughinshollen (modern Loughinsholin), County Londonderry, supporting Sir Robert Bateson. They are co-signatories; no kinship, occupation, age or individual townland is given. Castledawson and 4 July 1831 refer to the opposing meeting discussed in the declaration, not their homes or their signing date. <ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/390548642/ Belfast News-Letter, 16 August 1831, p.3, Loughinshollen freeholders’ declaration], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

== Research Notes ==
Robert Glasgow-3941, the Coltrim land occupier documented in 1820–1831, is a strong compatible regional candidate; the newspaper lacks a townland or family bridge to prove it. Glasgow-2656 of the Cookstown district remains another adult comparison. Glasgow-12 has an Ohio record sequence and is a weaker comparison despite Moneymore origin; the newspaper does not resolve his travel or retained Irish property. No Robert is identified as John’s father or brother, or as the surgeon’s father, from this signature.

Possible identities: [[Glasgow-3941|Glasgow-3941]], [[Glasgow-2656|Glasgow-2656]], [[Glasgow-12|Glasgow-12]]. These comparisons are not established identifications.

Glasgow-1968 is a compatible chronology comparison, but the 1827 Drummeen tithe subject is itself unproved as that profile. Glasgow-2058, Glasgow-3927 (an indexed freeholder with uncertain locality), Glasgow-2990 and Glasgow-4090 remain adult regional comparisons. No same-name co-signature establishes descent, brotherhood or identity with the Cookstown merchant. The declaration concerns a holding in the barony, not necessarily residence there.

John Glasgow occurs in the Loyal National Repeal Association subscription report, under “Per Mr. Edward Byrne, Dundrum,” published on 19 October 1840. This is a personal surname occurrence in a named collection list. <ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/image/1050137248/ Freeman’s Journal and Daily Commercial Advertiser, 19 October 1840, p.4, Loyal National Repeal Association subscriptions], original inspected 4 October 2026.</ref>

The list supplies no age, occupation, exact address, relatives or individual subscription amount. Dundrum identifies the collection context; it is not an explicit statement of John’s residence. Glasgow-2058, Glasgow-1968 and Glasgow-2056 survive as chronology comparisons only; none has a checked Dublin or Dundrum bridge. No identification or religious affiliation is inferred from the political subscription.

Possible identities: [[Glasgow-2058|Glasgow-2058]], [[Glasgow-1968|Glasgow-1968]], [[Glasgow-2056|Glasgow-2056]]. These comparisons are not established identifications.

Occupation and police station are explicit; age, birthplace, relatives and exact service dates are unstated. Glasgow-2056, Glasgow-2537 and Glasgow-867 are adult chronology comparisons only, with no checked constabulary connection. An administrative Drogheda probate label on a different John lead is not evidence of Drogheda residence or police service.
