Cousin Samuel Donaly Glenn and Martha Jane Crawford Glenn




This is Cousin Sam Glenn, nephew of GGG Grandpa Johnathan Glenn. He was 6' 7"--two inches taller than his first cousin John B. E. Glenn, who was 6' 5" according to the U. S. Volunteer Service discharge from service in the Mexican War. Sam looks more Scottish than Indian. His nephew had black hair and black eyes. Another Cousin, George, who served with GG Grandpa, was 6' 4" according to his military records. I remember Uncle Johnny, a son of John B. E. Glenn, who was very dark and extremely tall, maybe 6' 5" but at least 6' 4"--and seeming even taller because he wore a black stovepipe hat as late as 1942.
