An Illustrated History of Central Oregon, Western Historical Publishing Company, Spokane, WA. 1905, page 252. MICHAEL M. GLAVEY, of the firm of Glavey Brothers, stock-raisers and farmers, residing five miles south of Dufur, Wasco county, is a native of St. Louis, Missouri, born March 31, 1863. His parents, Thomas and Honor (Welch) Glavey, natives of County Mayo, Ireland, are mentioned elsewhere. Newton county, Missouri, was the field of our subject's earlier days, and there he was reared and partially educated in the graded schools, attending school also in Newton county, and also in Portland, Oregon, whither his family removed about 1875. When he was thirteen years of age he came with his parents to Wasco county, settling in his present location and here he has since resided. On the home farm, in 1895, November 23, Mr. Glavey was united in marriage to Annie A. Bolton, born in Petaluma, Sonoma county California. Her parents were Patrick and Bridget (O'Neil) Bolton, natives of Ireland. They at present reside on a farm near Dufur. Mrs. Glavey has six brothers and two sisters: Henry, John and Edward, Wasco county farmers and stock raisers: William, a druggist, in Portland; Mary, wife of George Thompson, a farmer residing in Sherman county; and Nellie, single, living at home. Mr. and Mrs. Glavey have four children living, Irene and William, aged five and three years, respectively, and Thomas and Marie, twins, one year old. Politically Mr. Glavey is a Democrat, and for years has been a delegate, annually, to county conventions. In 1870 he served as a delegate to the Democratic state convention. Two terms he was clerk of the school board, and has been as active in politics as his business would permit. John Glavey is the third member of the firm of Glavey Brothers. He was born in St. Louis, Missouri, on September 9, 1854, and dwells on the ranch with his brothers. He is still enjoying the freedom of the celibatarian and is highly esteemed. ******************* Submitted to the Oregon Bios. Project in January 2005 by Jeffrey L. Elmer.
