H. C. GLOVER, a resident of Pipestone county for a quarter century, owns and farms the northeast quarter and the east half of the northwest quarter of section 27, Rock township, upon which he has lived since 1901. For most of the improvements on his farm Mr. Glover is directly responsible. He raises considerable stock, especially thoroughbred Shropshire sheep, and engages extensively in dairying.
The birthplace of our subject is Wayne county New York, where on May 20, 1867, he first beheld the things of this earth. He was five years of age when death called his father, Conklin Glover, a farmer and a native of Long Island, New York. His mother, Sarah (Perkins) Glover, who died in June, 1901, was born in Wayne county.
Mr. Glover was reared on a farm and educated in the district schools of Wayne county, which continued to be his home until 1886. On March 17 of that year he arrived in Pipestone county. He attended the Pipestone high school for a time, and for four years was employed on the farm of C. E. Cunningham in Sweet township. For two years he was absent from the state, farming the while near Woodlake, Nebraska. He returned to Pipestone county and until his marriage was employed on the Cunningham farm. For one summer he resided in the city of Pipestone and did carpenter work, then rented land in Troy, which he farmed seven years, moving from there to his own farm in Rock township. Mr. Glover holds membership in the Woodstock Presbyterian church.
At Pipestone, on April 12, 1893, the subject of this sketch was joined in marriage to Annie Masek, who was born at Marshalltown, Iowa, October 9, 1874. Mr. and Mrs. Glover are the parents of the following ten children: Laura Belle, born March 5, 1894; Grace Jennie, born October 28, 1895; Harold Emery, born August 9, 1897; Walter Wallace, born August 27, 1899; Nellie Rose, born July 26, 1901; Edward Arthur and Herbert Homan (twins), born May 26, 1903; Ralph Cecil, born July 30, 1905; Donald Rollo, born August 5, 1908; and Francis Laverne, born August 21, 1910.
