Col. Glenn was one of four brothers. They reportedly went their separate ways and never heard from each other again, other than reading about a Glenn who lived somewhere else and wondering if he was a relative.

The family lived in Georgia for a while, where the oldest three, all boys were born. They moved to Kentucky in 1806, riding horseback with Betsy holding the youngest in her arms.

They settled in Livingston County, Kentucky, from which Caldwell County was formed in 1809. The location where they settled is now Lyon County, across the road from where the Glenn Chapel Methodist Church is now.
