  • Notes 
    • Peter Glebe

      Here is a citizen who is also instrumental in giving the main street of the village a good appearance, for he has a neat business room and a handsome and commodious frame residence in the rear. He also knows what hard work is, having worked as a blacksmith at Lisbon nearly all his life until be engaged in his present business here about seven years ago. His father was also a well-known blacksmith. Mr. Glebe was born in North Easthope in 1850. He has been twice married, his first wife being a daughter of the late John Cook, of North Easthope. By this union there were three children. The mother died about ten years ago. His second marriage took place in 1890 to Miss Christina, daughter of Mr. Peter Harbaugh, of Neustadt. The fruit of the latter union is one child. While at Lisbon Mr. Glebe was postmaster of that village for a number of years. His present business is groceries, confectionery, tobacco and cigars. In an adjoining room separate from the latter room be keeps a wholesale liquor department which is stocked with the best bottled goods in the market. Those in need of a superior article for medicinal purposes can be accommodated and will not be the victims of deception so frequently practiced in a business of this kind. It is at Mr. Glebe's place that the citizens can have communication with all the leading points in the county and else where, as it is the headquarters in Wellesley village for the Bell Telephone Company. Take it all round Mr. Glebe is about as comfortably situated as any of them.
