About John Glenn
John Glenn was the first documented European to settle in the Calgary area of Alberta, Canada. He was an Irish immigrant who first settled in the United States in 1849 and served in the American Civil War. He then travelled to British Columbia before settling in Calgary in 1873 with his wife, Adelaide, and built a small log cabin near the confluence of Fish Creek and the Bow River in today's Fish Creek Provincial Park.
