This particular branch of the Glover family originates with Josph
Glover, a shoemaker, who married Janet McNaught in Troqueer (Dumfries) in
1781. Surnames which also appear include, MCKIE, SUTHERLAND, COUSINS,
WALKER and ANDERSON. This group includes my maternal great grandfather,
the inscription on his tombstone in St Michael's churchyard, Dumfries
reading: "Joseph Johnstone Glover for 12 years provost of Dumfries
died 12 April 1908 aged 55 years. Agnes Jardine, wife of the above, died
Hazelwood, Maxwelltown, 26 Feb 1930 aged 74 years.
I am unsure of the ANDERSON connection, but there are several James
Anderson Glovers in my family group.
