Marion Glasgow
HOLD — compatible profile linked — The Carriden 30 September 1686 Marion–John Gray occurrence remains separate from the Edinburgh 29 June 1686 Marion–William Calder marriage. Glasgow-3143 is already supported as the Calder wife by her 1657 baptism and the Calder burgess admission naming James Glasgow, weaver, as father. A later September marriage would require a further event, but no husband death is established, so this alone is not a concrete exclusion. Gray-27691 and Gray-32439 have Fife family placements without a Marion/Carriden bridge; retain qualified candidates. The printed register preserves surname Rait (Raite/Rate), John’s trade as tailor and the 28 June 1659 marriage to Marion. Reid-24609 represents the Edinburgh Reid–Helen Henderson family, with son George Reade-97 in Maryland; the surname is a weaker phonetic lead and no tailor/Marion bridge is established. The unrestricted Raitt search and full biographies identify Raitt-2 as the 1806 Captain and Raitt-360 as the 1866-born Western Australian butcher, excluding both concretely. Other printed Rait entries do not identify this husband’s father. The printed marriage register adds John Bruce’s trade of smith, independently of the generic OPR index. Glasgow-3143 is already supported as Marion who married the Edinburgh weaver William Calder in June 1686; that established life segment is not transferred into this 1684 event. Bruce-6113 represents Sir John Bruce of Kinross with the 1687 Christian Leslie marriage, whereas Bruce-3507 has only a speculative Clackmannan son whose own profile explicitly leaves his baptism/parentage open. Neither inspected family supplies this smith-and-Marion couple. Different spouses alone are not exclusions; keep both candidate husbands qualified and the events separate.

Marion Glasgow and John Bruce; The current identity audit remains on HOLD; compatible candidates, where present, are linked below.</ref> == Research Notes == The supplied occurrence records John Bruce. These candidate profiles have compatible names, chronology and historical Scottish settings, but the specific spouse/locality bridge remains unproved. Missing extra corroboration does not exclude them; a candidate spouse does not automatically identify the Glasgow party. Existing profile destinations: [[Bruce-6113]], [[Bruce-3507]]. Compare the linked compatible profiles with the cited record household. Keep the candidates linked while identification remains qualified; do not create a duplicate from missing fields. === Record review, 30 September 2026 === The printed Edinburgh marriage register records Marion Glasgow and John Bruce, smith, on 1684-07-04.<ref>Henry Paton, ed., ''Register of Marriages for the Parish of Edinburgh, 1595–1700'' (Scottish Record Society, 1905), printed pp. 267 and 96, PDF pp. 277 and 106, [https://electricscotland.com/history/records/scottishrecordso16scotuoft.pdf#page=106 scanned edition]. Printed page images inspected 30 September 2026; original parish image uninspected. The unnumbered Prefatory Note, PDF p. 9, identifies the dates in register volumes I–II as marriage dates. Adult identification with a candidate profile is assessed separately.</ref> The printed marriage register adds John Bruce’s trade of smith, independently of the generic OPR index. [[Glasgow-3143]] is already supported as Marion who married the Edinburgh weaver William Calder in June 1686; that established life segment is not transferred into this 1684 event. [[Bruce-6113]] represents Sir John Bruce of Kinross with the 1687 Christian Leslie marriage, whereas [[Bruce-3507]] has only a speculative Clackmannan son whose own profile explicitly leaves his baptism/parentage open. Neither inspected family supplies this smith-and-Marion couple. Different spouses alone are not exclusions; keep both candidate husbands qualified and the events separate. == Sources == <references />
