(+) Glasscock. An English name of antiquity. If the threadbare tradition of the "three brothers" is correct, there is another family of this name in Va., which descended from "three brothers of the name who came from France with La Fayette, fought through the Revolution with him, and located in Va., married and raised families on the James River." (Power's Sangamon Co., Ill, p. 331.) Lieut. Thomas Glasscock of Va. served in the Continental Line. George Glasscock was foreman of the Grand Jury, Rich'd Co., Nov. 5, 1739, which presented Rev. Thos. Blewitt for "swearing and being Drunk." Bishop M. names the Glasscock family as among the prominent ones in Richmond Co. from 1692 to 1775. (v. also BALL 32 and 101.) Robert Glasscock rec'd 200 ??. Eliz. Co., next to Cheeseman's land, 1635.
