In my limited research I have come across several David Glen's also, one seems to have been a quite well known footballer who played for Brechin City. With Brechins' proximity to Marykirk quite possibly related to the Glens' I'm researching.

Thanks for the information.

I gained my limited knowledge of Davies family from Ancestory.co.uk which was uploaded by a Janice Brown from Victoria BC.

I know that one of Davies aunts married a Canadian and I think the family moved to Canada, this could be her connection.

Davies other last known relative still lives locally whom I have been in contact with.

Researching for a project on Davie Glen from Tealing would welcome any information on Davie or his family. The family moved from the Marykirk area to Westhall Terrace just north of Dundee keen to find out when.

Currently researching for a project on Davie Glen (1909 - 1978) from Tealing.

Davie was the youngest of six children. His Father was Alexander Glen and his mother Margaret nee Turner.

The family appears to have been from the Marykirk area. They then moved to Westhall Terrace Duntrune just north of Dundee, I havent been able to establish exactly when, or why they moved.

Alexander Glen was killed in action at the battle of Arras in France 3rd May 1917, he is buried in the Faubourg-d'Amiens Cemetery where the Arras Memorial is situated
