  Family 1	James B. Glenn,   b. 14 Oct 1781, Accomack County, Virginia, USA d. 11 Nov 1847 (Age 66 years)
  Marriage	1 Jun 1811	Accomack County, Virginia, USA   [5]
  	George Smith was the security on the M.L.B. of James Glenn and Kiturah Garrison, dated 1 Jun 1801. (Note: Since Kiturah was born in 1790, the date is probably an error. This marriage is not in Nottingham's Marriage License Bonds of Accomack County, Virginia, 1774-1806 nor on Ancestry.com. Since she was named as daughter Kittuarh Glen in her father's will of 5 Apr 1813, perhaps the marriage was 1 June 1811 and not 1801. This would also explain why it was not in Nottingham's marriage book, being dated after the dates covered by his book.)
