It's so great that there's finally a website for Glowno (or Glovno to our Yiddish speaking ancestors). You've done a great job, Ada, and I hope that everyone will pitch in to add additional information.

One of our relatives said that they called Glowno "ir sh'kulo FLAMHOLTZ," the town of FLAMHOLTZES. It's fascinating to see how many people with this rare name resided in the town. Glowno is the ancestral home of the Flamholtzes.

We've traced the family back to one couple who lived there in the 1700s. They adopted the name the year after the Prussians decreed that Jews had to adopt surnames. While our research isn't complete, it appears that all the Flamholtzes descend from this one couple.

Here's the list of surnames that are associated with our Glowno clan. The majority of these folks lived in Glowno itself, though some are children who moved to other shtetls. All are names from the Old Country (I haven't included the names of those who married into the family once they emigrated to the US, Israel, etc.).

I have extensive information for some of the people and only scant information for others. I'd be glad to help anyone and would welcome the chance to swap information.
