Arrena "Renie" Mc Glassion was born in July 13, 1874 to  Joseph Bennett McGlassion and Edith "Eda" E. Moore.

According to Dianna Latta, great-great-granddaughter:

"Family members tell me that she was quite a gal, very happy with the men in her life.  She liked to drink and smoke a corn cob pipe!  As a matter of fact she was married five times to:  George Dillion Mc Neely, David W. Ayres, James W.Little,  ? Briscoe, and Thomas A. Barrow.  All together she had nine children. She was quite busy. 

Her marriage with George Mc Neely produced Gutherie and Willie Mc Neely, with  David Aryes there was Clayborn, who was quite a clown and ran away with an Indian girl, and never returned, and Goldie Ayres.  Next she had Juanita,  (twins) Mary and Martha, (Martha died shortly after birth), James and Hazel Little.  She had no children with Briscoe that I am aware of.

She died in August 17, 1952, and was buried Tuesday, August 19 at Maple Park Cemetery in Aurora, Lawrence County, Missouri.  She is buried side by side with her last husband, Thomas A. Barrow.  She was 78 years old."
