From the following: http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~dcglover/genealogy/benjaminglover1753.htm

"It must be pointed out here that the listing of the family of Benjamin Glover, in the book A Roster of Revolutionary Soldiers and Patriots in Alabama, Alabama Society Daughters of the American Revolution, Louise Julich, published in 1979, p- 240-242, is not correct. The 1st wife and the children by her (Barshaba Clements and children James, Salina, William, Benjamin, Mary, Calvin, Andrew, Sarah, Wylie, Richard, Ambrose, Sarah) should not be listed. This was the family of Benjamin K. or Ben K. Glover, believed to be a nephew of Benjamin Glover, Revolutionary Soldier.

The second family listed, wife unknown, children James S., Elizabeth, Silas M., Mary (Polly), Nancy, is the family of Benjamin Glover, Revolutionary Soldier."

... It appears this memorial page makes the same error in confusing the two Benjamin Glovers. I just wanted to make you aware of this.
