Sandra,
I have a book on James Glancy from 1786 to 1986, I can find no reference to Albert, if there are any other names I'll be glad to check them.
This from a book that I can probably dig up if you need the reference: The origin of the Glancy name in Ireland are concealed in legend and unsbstantiated voiced custom. It is stated that the name is nothing more than a corruption of "Clancy", still others insist that "Glancy" was an established surname from at least the 14th century, having evolved from the ancient surname of "Macphlannchaidh". My infromation is that they are from Ireland.
