From: Glover Memorials and Genealogies: An Account of John Glover of Dorchester, Massachusetts and His Descendants, with a Brief Sketch of Some of the Glovers who First Settled in New Jersey, Virginia and Other Places, by Anna Glover (Boston, Massachusetts, United States: David Clapp & Sons, Printers, 1867), pgs. 239, 245.

THOMAS GLOVER, the third and youngest son of Mr. Nathaniel and Hannah (Hinckley) Glover, was born at the homestead in Dorchester, Dec. 26, 1690; was baptized 28 (10) 1690. June 7, 1722, at the age of 32 years, he was married to Elizabeth Clough, of Boston, by Rev. Thomas Prince, of the Old South Church, Boston. He resided at Newbury farm from the time of his father's removal there, and succeeded to it in 1723-4, at the time of his father's decease. June 9, 1717, he was admitted to the Dorchester Church in full communion. April 12, 1728, Elizabeth, the wife of Thomas Glover, was admitted to full communion. In 1729 he received the commission of Deputy Sheriff for the County of Suffolk, from under the hand and seal of Edward Winslow, Esq., which service he performed with great faithfulness and ability for several years, and until his health required him to relinquish it. In 1734 he was chosen to be one of the Selectmen, and he served a few years in that office. He also served as Grand Juror at several times. In 1741 a commission of " Lieutenant of a Troop of Horse, under the command of Estes Hatch, Esq., of the First Regiment of Horse in the Province of Massachusetts Bay in New England," was granted " to Thomas Glover, Esq., of Dorchester, by Jonathan Beleher, Esq., Governor of his Majesty's Province, in the 15th year of his Majesty's reign, King George H."
