• Notes

  It is theory on my part that this son listed in the 1840 census is the Joseph Carllile Glenn who died on Apr 2, 1841 aged 1 year (plus). The rest of the date is unreadable. I believe this to be true because the brother who had died a couars before he was born to this same family was named Joseph James Carllile Glenn. It has been my experience that when a young child dies, their name is often given to a younger sibling born after their death. Joseph Carlisle Glenn who is buried near his grandparents, William and Ann Curry Glenn, would fit with info in the 1840 census where James's son was listed as having been born between 1835 and 1840. He had probably died before the 1850 census as he is not listed living with his parents at that time. Other possibilities are that Glenn's name was Gilbert. He lived in Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio in 1860, was age 32, b. in Ohio and his wife was Elizabeth, age 25. (CL-158) If so, he could be the Gilbert W. Glenn who was in the 1890 census. He had been a Private in the Civil War, Co. B, 60th Regiment of the Ohio Infantry. He enlisted on Aug. 7, 1862 and was discharged Nov. 10, 1862. He re-enlisted on Sept. 14, 1864 and was discharged June 17, 1865 in Co. D, 179th Regiment of the Ohio infantry. His address was Vinton, Morgan Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio. (CL-363) An alternate possibility for this Glenn is Meredith, age 22 in 1860, wife's name Janet age 20. (CL-158) There is a George W. Glenn in the 1890 census who was a Private in the Civil War. He enlisted on Sept. 1864 and was Discharge on June 23, 1865 with Disease of lungs and eyes. He was in Co. D, 179th Reg. His address was listed as Tycoon, Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio. (CL-363) There is also a P. Glenn who was married to Sarah Ann. Sarah Ann died at age 23 on Nov. 11, 1862 in Gallia Co., Ohio (CL-382)
