Nancy Rebecca Campbell Glass

Born in 1842, Nancy Rebecca Campbell Glass—also recorded as Nannie Rebecca Campbell Glass—was an American poet. A grave record places her birth on November 26, 1842, and her death on December 20, 1930, with burial in Winchester, Virginia.

The main work that can be readily confirmed for her is The Mountain Spring, and Other Poems, published in 1913. Library and public-domain records connect her with that collection, which preserves a body of poetry shaped by religious feeling, nature imagery, and quiet moral reflection.

Although not much biographical detail is easy to verify today, her poems have remained accessible through public-domain archives and Project Gutenberg. That continued availability suggests a writer remembered less for public fame than for the calm, earnest spirit of her verse.
