AUGUSTUS T. GLAHN

(Farmer and Nurseryman, Post-office, Hager’s Grove).
Born after his parents came to the United States from Prussia, Mr. Glahn is a native of Marion county, Mo., a brother to Christian P., whose sketch precedes this, and his birth was on the 17th day of November, 1846. His father is still living in Marion county, where Augustus T. was reared and remained until 1866. He then came to Shelby county, but had previously begun life for himself. He became a farmer and nurseryman, more particularly a nurseryman, however, and has achieved good success in the raising of fruit trees and shrubbery. Mr. Glahn has a place of 80 acres devoted partly to the nursery business, and has as fine an assortment of young trees, apples, peaches, pears, cherries, apricots, small fruits, etc., as are to be found in this entire section of country. He has a large nursery and an extensive trade in Shelby and adjoining counties. He also has a fine variety of flowers, evergreen and other shrubs. On February 19, 1874, Mr. Glahn was married to Miss Sarah E. Patton, a daughter of John Patton, of this county. Mr. and Mrs. G. have three children: Ida May, Robert Rodney and Pearly Roy. Mr. and Mrs. G. are members of the Christian Church.
