NOTES:

The above table contains ten generations of Glessners, starting with Jacob Glessner Sr. (b 1732) and descending down to Aidan Wayne Glessner (b 1997). Jacob Glessner Sr. is Aidan Wayne Glessner's seventh great grandfather.

Somerset County, Pennsylvania is approximately 50 miles southeast of Pittsburgh. The city of Berlin in Somerset County is where Jacob Glessner Sr. and many of the earlier Glessners are buried.

Many thanks also go to Ted Klenk, Pleasanton, California, who provided me with some of the above information. Ted Klenk is a distant relative (fifth cousin) of mine, who contacted me via email in late July, 1999.

Also, thanks go to Gary Harding (another distant relative) from Fredericksburg, Virginia, for providing me pictures of three of my earlier grandparents.
