    Hi Richard! I can certainly add many more to your list of Glasspoole descendants! In specific, I have info on several branches whose Glasspoole roots are through a maternal link. My Glasspoole lineage is from my paternal grandmother, Karol Glasspoole.

    I would love to touch base with you to exchange notes-especially on the LA and TX links you've located. My list involves many in Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Virginia.

    My great grandmother was Edith Mary Glasspool who married Capt. John Newton Graham. They had a child Mildred, who was born about January 2, 1902. They lived in Oregon City, Oregon, where John worked in his family's business Oregon Transportation Company. Edith Mary had a sister named Alice. Later they moved to Seaside, Oregon and opened up a store. I believe Edith Mary's parents were Richard Glasspool and Ellen Mary Drewe Glasspool.

    Does anyone have any information about any of these people?

    My great grandfather was Victor Glasspool and his wife was Margaret (Maggie) Sextroh.  Victor was born 1872 in Surrey, England to Jesse and Harriet (Wildy/Wilday) Glasspool who were married on August 30, 1952 in Egham.  

    Jesse was the son of a Robert Glasspool (possibly of Berkshire) and I am still searching for his wife.

    Jesse's occupation before emigrating to Canada was as a 'baker, grocer' in Wokingham and as I mentioned earlier married in Egham.  

    Note #1, I have found no siblings for Jesse Glasspool, son of Robert Glasspool.  

    Note #2, Victor had 10 known (to me) brothers and sisters.  I tend to believe he was one of the youngest of his siblings, since his parents married in 1852 and Victor was born in 1871.  Below is a list of Victor's brothers and sisters (in no particular order).  Some may have emigrated to Ontario Canada with Jesse and Harriet (re-researching the date, but it may have been approximately 1880).

    01. Walter Glasspool - emigrated to Ontario, Canada.  US?

    02. Henry Glasspool - emigrated to Ontario, Canada

    03. Charles Glasspool

    04. Elizabeth Glasspool

    05. Polly Glasspool

    06. Ned Glasspool (died April ?) - maybe Ned was Edwin??

    07. Kate Glasspool

    08. Mary Glasspool

    09. Tom Glasspool

    10. Robert Glasspool - I have some notes that Victor's brother Robert married 'Sarah' and had 3 children Rose, Harriet (Glasspool) Kniep (spouse:  Louis Kniep (d. 1988) and Victor Glasspool (d. 30 Jul 1974).
