Glenwood is listed as distributed by Charles J. Godfrey, if I'm reading the chart right. Active 1898.
Who knows if it's the same as your barn find.
Yes, that’s a strong possibility when looking at the era crank arms and pedals. This bike was sold only for one year under that label. The list on Wheelmen really gives the story of what the bike boom looked like. I’m searching for American Pickers episodes where Mike Wolfe had picked one. The owner has had this in an old barn and will be approached to see if he will sell it. Crazy find.
