MR. and MRS. J. W. and A. W. McGLAUN

    Messrs. J. Wesley and Andrew W. McGlaun, only sons of David G. McGlaun, now
living, are among the best known citizens of Chattahoochee County. Although
keenly interested in the history of this county, Mr. West McGlaun, handicapped
by deafness, has not contributed as much data as Mr. Andrew who served as rural
mail carrier for twenty-eight years, thus adding to his store of information
regarding the people of the county. These men recalled numerous experiences of
pioneer days told to them by their father whose home was included in Marion
County when its county site was removed to Buena Vista. And he is said to have
helped with the selection of this place, as well as that of Cusseta, when
Chattahoochee County was formed. His plantation has remained in possession of
his descendants, now being the home of J. Wesley and the family of his son,
David E. McGlaun. The wife of J. Wesley, Mrs. Lillian Bagley McGlaun, a
granddaughter of another of Chattahoochee's pioneers, William Bagley, spent her
entire life, which was devoted to the service of her family, in this county. The
wife of Andrew W., Mrs. Sallie Calhoun McGlaun, a daughter of Prof. James G.
Calhoun and his first wife, Alice Jane Miller, of South Carolina, was born in
Marion County, and has lived in several others where her father taught school.
Later she and her sister, Mrs. Mollie Harris, gave splendid service to the state
as teachers. Prof. James G. Calhoun, whose mother was Miss Elizabeth McNeil, was
born in Talbot County, where his father's will is recorded with the name spelled
"Colquhon" is originally in Scotland. Some have made the name famous but none
have lived as more worthily than Mrs. Sallie Calhoun McGlaun, whose remarkable
personality is known to many who have recognized her extraordinary intellectual
and spiritual power and attainments.
