2nd Great Grandfather John Fryer Glover

John Fryer Glover father of Joseph Hillary Glover father of Frank Burton Glover father of Charles Hayward Glover.

I have been in touch with Bruce Glover one of my cousins. He pointed out that he has things he inherited that list him as John Franklin Glover not Fryer. For the moment I'm going to leave this as it is for search engine purposes and the fact that so many other sites have him listed as John Fryer Glover. Once Bruce gets things set right I will change mine over to Franklin.

Son of

William GLOVER and Susan McGill

Husband of Margaret Brown m. 1850

Father of

1. William Kent GLOVER b. 1851

2. Joseph Hillary GLOVER b. 1852

3. John Martin GLOVER b. 1854

4. Lewis Thomas GLOVER b. 1856

5. Benjamin Steven GLOVER b. 1860

6. Susan GLOVER b. 1862

7. James Bartow GLOVER b. 1864

8. Morgan Jackson GLOVER b. 1866

Received his education in Augusta GA. The Mexican War (1846-1848) was in progress and he joined the Richmond Blues of Augusta in 1847 and served with distinction. It happened that James Brown, a brother of Margaret (John's wife) was also in the Richmond Blues and John and James became good friends. Other companies joined the Richmond Blues in Savannah and took a train to south west GA. Frome there they walked to Vera Cruz, Mexico from thence fighting their way to Mexico City. The war having ended, John and James were among others who were discharged in 1849 from A camp in Mobile AL. There was much illness among the troops because of Mexico's tropical climate. Also, John suffered the loss of some of his fingers of the right hand & other permanent, though partially disabling injuries. Because of injuries suffered in the Mexican War, John was unable to qualify for service in the regualr Confederate Army, but for a few months trained with the Home Guard. He was physically unable to serve adequately and was discharged by a physician at home. In the early summer of 1849, John visited James and met Margaret. He married Margaret Brown in February 1850. They established a home in Campbell Cnty GA where he was a farmer and from 1857 to 1861 was tax collector of Campbell County (later known as Douglas) He was a tax collector for the Confederacy during the war years and for Douglas Cnty again from 1865 to his death in 1877. His home 30 miles west of Atlanta in the path of Sherman's March to the Sea (1864) was burned to the ground the family's livestock, food suplies, and anything of value was taken by soldiers of the Union Army. He depleted his assets by paying the tax of his neighbors who were away from home at the front. In doing so, he depleted his own assets. This along with the loss of his home, worked a real hardship on the family. He was delegate to the Georgia Constitutional Convention of 1877 from Douglas County which was made from part of Campbell County in 1870. The Constitution adopted remained unchanged until 1940. A sketch about John is contained in a book about the Constitutional Convention of Georgia in July and August 1877 on file in Atlanta Dept. of Archives and History. Although he died in Douglas Cnty, the Atlanta Constitution honored his memory with a special news item, giving briefly his life history and accomplishments, and complimentary of him, as a person of honor and integrity and a faithful and efficient public servant.
