Reported events, notices, advertisements and letters. OCR matches need visual checking; place names, vessels and matches to other surnames are excluded from Glasgow surname evidence.
Availability depends on the particular repository, locality, date range and record series. We have not established complete coverage for this collection. Follow each provider link for its holdings and access terms; a missing result is not proof of absence.
Reading the evidence: an index, transcript, provider search page and original image are different sources. A recorded image link does not mean its reading or identity match is confirmed. Inspect the assessment and source page before changing a family relationship. Repository guides checked 4 October 2026.

How to read these notices
Cards lead with the person named in the notice; profile candidates are assessed separately. Birth cutoffs labelled “by c.” are estimates, usually assuming an adult professional was at least 18; open the birth note for the basis. Event groups are broad navigation aids built from each notice’s record type. A relationship filter identifies family wording in the notice, not a proved match to a WikiTree family.

What the notice says
Luke Teeling advertises red port in pipes received per the William, Captain Glasgow, from Oporto; notice dated Lisburn, 11 July 1796.
Evidence and identity limits
Vessel William and Captain Glasgow are distinct. These cargo notices give only the captain surname; continuity with the separately named 1792 master is probable, not proved. Repeated advertisements do not establish repeated voyages or arrival dates. Trade ports and merchant addresses are not personal residence or family evidence. The dateline is visible in the complete reprints; the 29 August bounded crop stops before it. The 8 July provider issue date precedes this notice date; its masthead range has not been separately checked. Identity review (6 October 2026): Northern Star Jul–Nov 1796: Luke Teeling of Lisburn advertises red port per the William, Captain Glasgow, from Oporto. Same captain cluster. Luke Teeling is a merchant, not kin.
[b. c. 1763; d. c. 1816] · master of the vessel WilliamWhy this candidate?
Captain surname only; William is the vessel. Continuity with the separately named master Wm. Glasgow of the Belfast brig William is probable (same brig, Belfast base, same trades). Profile assignment: Glasgow-3324 is possible only, as argued in group 72014483.
