JAMES GLOVER AND MARY ATHERTON GLOVER by an unknown author
James Glover, the son of William and Elizabeth Naylor Glover, was born 18 October 1827 at Newton, Lancashire, England. He was the fourth child in a family of twelve. He married Mary Atherton, who was born 30 May 1828, a daughter of John Adam Atherton and Mary Lyon of Pemberton, Lancashire, England.
James, like the other members of the Glover family, was in and out of the church for about thirty years, but Mary was always firm in her church duties and always had a home for the missionaries.
Before James came to America, he had a well-bound book in which he kept a journal and family record. He tried to record all important events with births and deaths of all relatives and close friends.
James and Mary had ten children, but six of their children died in childhood. The four living children all emigrated to Utah at various times, as did their parents.
LETTER FROM JOEL HILLS JOHNSON TO JAMES GLOVER (mailed to England):
Brother Glover, Dear Sir: Johnson, Kane Co., Utah July 7th, 1881
Through the politeness of your daughter Ellen, I am permitted to address a few lines to you on the subject of your emigration. I have concluded to advance the emigration money for yourself and wife on condition that you are willing to come and work for me at fair wages until the same is refunded. your labor will be on the farm. I can furnish a room with necessary provisions for yourself and wife. I expect to need the labors of both; I am in my eightieth year with a family of small children and not able to do much labor. I have been 50 years in the Church, was thirteen years with the Prophet Joseph Smith, and am the father of 29 children, 113 grandchildren and 72 great-grandchildren. I am a High Priest and Patriarch in the Church and have preached the gospel for five years. I do not make these statements to brag on myself, but that you may know who is sending for you. You have been recommended to me as good faithful laboring man, and that is the kind of man I want to look after my little farm and other affairs.
I think Ellen is a good girl. She is living with my brother close by and I think is well satisfied. If you accept my offer, you can have a good home with me (should you be suited) until you can make a better one for yourself. I think Brother Clayton (a good man) will emigrate both of your daughters. Your son, I think could do well here if he would come. Give me an immediate answer; if you accept my offer, the money will be paid in as soon as the answer comes. The Prophet Joseph once said to me "Whomsoever you bless shall be blessed." And now I bless you and your family in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, inasmuch as you will harken to the words of wisdom and Eternal Life given through the Prophet.
With love, good wishes and my blessings I bid you farewell. JOEL H. JOHNSON.
