GLYNN. (Lieutenant, 1840.)

Edmund Anthony Glynn is son, we believe, of Admiral H. R. Glynn.

This officer entered the Navy 5 Aug. 1825; passed his examination in 1831; and acquired the rank he now holds 6 Nov. 1840. His appointments, we find, have since been, on the North America, West India, Home, and African stations – 19 Jan. 1841, to the Winchester 50, as Flag-Lieutenant to Sir Thos. Harvey – 21 Aug. 1841, to the Pique 36, Capt. Henry Forbes – 2 March, 1842, as First, to the Volage 26, Capt. Sir Wm. Dickson – 17 Oct. 1842, to the Caledonia 120, flag-ship of Sir David Milne – and, 25 May, 1844, as First, to the Cygnet sloop, Capts. Henry Layton, Fred. Wilmot Horton, and Fred. Byng Montresor, with the latter of whom he is at present serving.
