Additional detail

[edit]

Mr. Glisson was a veteran of both the Mexican-American War and the American Civil War. Yet no Wikipedia page existed for him despite numerous references (and some broken links). A missing ingredient had been a biography sponsored by his two sons who survied into adulthood, Oliver (Jr.) and Jacob. The book is rare, therefore expensive and not digitized. Received a copy via interlibrary loan. Seblake (talk) Seblake (talk) 19:04, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
