The real origin of the Glaser side of the family has always been rather obscure. I had a Y-DNA test on myself done several years ago with some rather interesting results. My patrilineal ancestral origins turned out to be England, Germany, Ireland, and Scotland. Apparently, I haven't went back far enough to find anyone on the Glaser side of the family from England, Scotland, or Ireland, although there is an old family story I heard as a kid which talked about a British soldier of Scottish ancestry who deserted his unit, hid out with a local peasant, and married the peasant's daughter. I always connected this story with the Eick side of the family, but Herman Eick was married to Otto's sister. The story may have originated with Otto's sister and the soldier was on the Glaser side of the family.
One other thing I probably should mention in passing. Some stories O have heard from my cousin Darrell Olson seem to indicate a Jewish connection to my grandfather Otto. My DNA tests don't seem to indicate this, but with a name like Glaser, I suppose it is possible. That's probably one of those things we're never going to know for sure unless somebody from the Lembke side of the family can come up with something.
