Шаблон:Other uses Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox settlement Glasgow is a town in Kanawha County, West Virginia, United States, situated along the Kanawha River. The population was 708 at the 2020 census.[1] Glasgow was incorporated on June 20, 1920. Folk etymology derives its name from a combination of the word "glass" with the word "company" for a glass factory that was built there many years ago, but the presence of many Scottish immigrants to this part of Appalachia, particularly from the Strathclyde region, indicates that the town was most likely named after the Scottish city of Glasgow in Strathclyde.[2] Other Virginia and West Virginia locations named for places in Strathclyde include Dumbarton, Argyle, Loudoun County, Hamilton in Loudoun County, Lanark and Renfrew.
