Good business judgment and foresight, combined with honorable principles, have enabled Mr. Glenn to bring to fruition the
plans which in early youth he formed for the acquirement of a for tune, his well directed efforts and untiring perseverance richly
meriting the success which he has achieved. He was born in Wardensville, W. Va., April 29, 1861, son of John C. and Harriett
(Wilson) Glenn, natives of Virginia. Upon completion of his education in the public schools of Wardensville, Mr. Glenn worked at
various occupations until 1882 when he located in Ohio, where he remained until 1885. From Ohio he went to New Mexico, where
for twenty-three years he engaged in stock-raising, after which, in 1910, he located in Redlands, Cal. Six months later he came to
Riverside county and purchased a ten-acre orange grove, to which in 1911 he added ten acres, this also being in oranges, and taken
as a whole his property is regarded as among the most valuable in this section of the county. Mr. Glenn still continues his interest
in the stock business in New Mexico. In 1908, when he made his clean-up he sold twenty thousand head of sheep. Since his retire
ment from the range he has made many visits to the scene of his former activities.

In 1909 Mr. Glenn was united in marriage with Mrs. Sadie Solander, whose birth occurred in Illinois. Mr. and Mrs. Glenn
are actively identified with all public movements of worth and enjoy a large circle of stanch friends. A member of Carrizozo
Lodge, No. 41, F. & A. M., of New Mexico, Mr. Glenn is also affiliated with Corona Lodge, No. 271, K. of P., and is always prompt
to aid his less fortunate fellow citizens. – My father, David William O’Flaherty, youngest son of Mary Elizabeth Glenn, one of David Wilson Glenn’s younger sisters, was named for him when born in 1908. At first he was going to be named William (after uncle Will) and middle name David after the above but it was switched. D. W. Glenn gave my father and mother $1000 when they were married in 1937 and they built their first home with that money.

David married Molly Frye in 1896. She died in El Paso, TX, in 1907 and was returned to Winchester, VA, for interment. When he passed in 1945 he also was returned to be buried next to his first wife.
In the Carrizozo news of Lincoln Co, NM, 25 Feb 1910 was the following: “For Sale. The Furniture of an eight room house. Sale begins Tuesday, March 1. For particulars see D. W. Glenn at residence.” In the Carrizozo news of Lincoln Co, NM, 19 May 1911 was the following, “D. W. Glenn, who had attended court here the past two weeks, left Wednesday for his home in Corona, California.” Which probably indicated his leaving the sheep ranching business.
