Nat. Biog._ =Glengarry.= A county in Ontario, on the St. Lawrence. Named after the famous glen in Inverness, Scotland. Many Scottish Highlanders left their native country after the battle of Culloden in 1746, and emigrated to America. They were all intensely loyal, and when the Revolution broke out many moved north into Canada, settling on the Niagara frontier, the bay of Quinté, and the banks of the St. Lawrence. From the latter settlement sprang the present Glengarry County. In 1804-1805 Bishop McDonell obtained several grants of land in the district for the Highlanders of the disbanded Scottish Glengarry Regiment, and for twenty-five years promoted the interests of the colonists. He raised, in 1812, the Glengarry Fencibles Regiment, which rendered valuable service during the war. =Bib.=: Macdonell, _Sketches Illustrating the Early Settlement and History of Glengarry in Canada_. =Glengarry Fencibles.= =Bk= Canadian Highland corps, 180. =Glenie, James.= =W= Member for Sunbury, in New Brunswick Assembly, 1792-1809, 13; a pioneer reformer, 13.
