Joseph H. Glide was born near Tauton, England, August 15, 1835. His
father was named
John and his mother Mary. He was educated in private schools and in 1852,
at the age of seventeen,
he came to Philadelphia. In two years, 1854, he headed west to
California, landing in Grass Valley. He
found employment buying stock (cattle and sheep) for a John Davis. After
a year he came to Solano
County, settling near Vacaville, and went into the sheep-raising
business. He also handled cattle, and
brought from England some pure-bred shorthorn cattle, as well as
importing French merino
sheep. Needing lots of grazing land he developed ranches in Sacramento,
Solano, Yolo, Glenn, Tulare
and Kern Counties. He was a pioneer in the work of reclaiming land
considered useless, and
constructed the first systems of big levees in the old Lisbon district of
Yolo County. He controlled
12,000 acres of reclaimed land opposite the City of Sacramento, just
across from Yolo County.
In 1906, at the age of 71, Joesph H. Glide passed away. His wife Lizzie
was 17 years younger and out
lived her husband by about 30 years. Mrs. Lizzie Glide died in about
1936.
Lizzie Glide took over the responsibility of managing his large business.
Lizzie's success in this
business world was aclaimed by bankers and captains of industry.
Many years after his death, oil was discovered on his large Kern County
land holdings. It was Mrs.
Glide who sold the oil leases "to good advantage".
