John W. Glenn and wife Eliza lived in a cabin on a hill near the Wilder Tower monument on the Chickamauga battlefield.  John left for with the 39th Georgia and died in a Mobile, Alabama hospital some time in 1863.  When battle began in September of 1863 along Chickamauga Creek Union General Rosecrans established his headquarters in the Widow Glenn’s cabin. She and son Avery found their way south to her fathers house near this church. The last night of the battle the cabin caught fire and burned to the ground. The widow Glenn never returned to her and John’s home place. She married W.B. Crumpton. Both are also buried here with John.
