Surnames: Glover/Glovier Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/VUB.2ACE/27.57 Message Board Post: My great-great grandfather was Benjamin Glover of Linville, Virginia (Rockingham County). He had 13 children, of which 7 were boys. Half of his family (4 of the boys) used "Glover"; the other half used "Glover." I knew both. I was told there was an argument in the family in the middle of the 19th cnetury, and some of them put the "i" in, but I doubt that is correct. The Civil War records lists them both ways. JDG
