Caroline "Carrie" E. Glaze (b. Glaze) (1850-1934) was born in Crawford
County, Illinois, and died in Denver, Colorado. In 1872 she married Daniel W. Glaze in
Denver. Originally a farmer, he went from Ohio to California during the gold rush of the
early 1850s and in 1860 moved to Colorado to prospect for silver in the Georgetown area.
He went on to obtain several mining patents in Colorado over the following thirty years.
Caroline first heard of Christian Science in Denver in 1886, where she was acquainted
with several of Mary Baker Eddy's students and others working to establish Christian
Science there. Caroline studied Christian Science with Minnie B. Hall De Soto, a student
of Eddy's. Caroline and her daughter Anna W. Glaze joined The First Church of Christ,
Scientist, in Boston, Massachusetts, in June 1902, and her daughter-in-law Lillian R.
Glaze (b. Rinehart) joined in November 1918. Caroline was listed as a practitioner in
The Christian Science Journal between 1907 and 1920, and
Lillian also became a listed practitioner. Caroline and her husband moved to Boulder,
Colorado, prior to 1900. Sometime after her husband's passing in 1902, she moved back to
Denver, then briefly to Loveland, Colorado, before settling again in Denver around 1917,
where she remained for the rest of her life.
