Jane Cocking Glover (June 14, 1789 – September 15, 1876) was an English-born American socialite who was also, at one time, active as a poet.
At some point during 1805 the Cocking sisters began preparations to move to the United States; in June the Magazine printed two poems by "Belinda" wishing them well on the trip.
[2] Charles C. Glover, Jr., a great-grandson of the couple, specifies "a daughter, Matilda, the wife of Robert Harper Williamson, also lived to be eighty-seven, and another daughter, Mary Jane, wife of Abraham Ferree Shriver, lived to the age of ninety-four, dying of influenza in the war epidemic of 1918.
The only son of Charles and Jane Glover was Richard Leonidas, who married Caroline Percy of North Carolina".
[1] A portrait of Glover by Pietro Bonanni was painted in 1821, and later became part of the collection of the Corcoran Gallery of Art.
