He was named after his paternal grandfather, John Abraham Glimp, who migrated from Amsterdam, Holland. The name of the community of Glimp, in Lauderdale Co., Tenn., takes it's name from Esq. John Abraham Glimp who was in the vicinity as early as 1850. "It isn't known if he established his sotr before the Civil War or shortly after. But it was there as early as 1870, if not before. The store sold mostley groceries and whiskey. Oxen and mules were used in those daysto haul supplies from Fulton, on the Mississippi River, to Glimp. It took several days to make the round trip to Fulton and back. The men slept in the big hogsheads on the river dock while staying over and getting supplies.
Al Lea was a merchant at Fulton then. Probablythe first Glimp store was located in front of his home. The only markers left today are two large oak trees, which stood in their front yard. It was located at the forks of the three roads that lead to Ripley, Henning, and Fulton. The store wa facing the Ripley Road. This must have been a gathering place for men of the community. Many stories have been told, some funny and some sad, that took place near there. It was told that when John Abraham Glimp became magistrate he was unaware of some of the duties he would have to perform - such as performing marriages. Prior to the Civil War colored people were not married by magistrates. Shortly after his election the first couple to come to him to be married was a colored couple. He was so taken by surprise that he picked up the ALMANAC and performed the marriage ceremony. This couple, it was said, lived together and reared a family.
Mrs. T.N. Wakefield, a daughter of John A. Glimp, told how she stood on the gate post as a child and watched[General Nathan Bedford] Forrest's army as it marched past their house before the battle on Cold Creek near Fulton during the Civil War. She said one of the soldiers put a little red cap on her head and told her to wear it. She said they could hear the awful gunfire of the battle from their house. They had to bury all their money and valuables and much of their food and meat. The family tells that John A. Glimp buried his money in fruit jars under the sage bushes in the garden."
John Abraham Glimp was killed by lightening, between Ripley and Glimp, while standing under a tree.
