Boyer Glover
Boyer Glover (fl. 1758-1771), Muggletonian, was a watch and clock maker in Leadenhall Street, London.[1][2]
Glover was a strong Muggletonian, but the notices of him in the records of the sect are very scanty. He acted as a peacemaker, and opposed the issue of the fourth (1760) edition of Reeve and Muggleton's ',' containing political passages omitted in the second (1661) and fifth (1846) editions. Glover's spiritual songs are to be found in 'Songs of Grateful Praise,' &c., 1794, 12mo (seven by Glover); and 'Divine Songs of the Muggletonians,' &c., 1829, 16mo (forty-nine by Glover, including the previous seven, and one by his wife, Elizabeth Glover). Others are in unprinted manuscript collections.[3]
