An account from the chapter on Bedford city, in the words of 1870.

The county history of 1870 has no passage naming this settlement, which was common for the smaller places. Its township is covered in full.

The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 2 fires within 5 miles of Glendale between 1993 and 2000, burning about 7 acres in total. None started naturally. 1 was recorded as arson. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a fire counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

The most recent of them, most recent first, with the day each was reported and the service that recorded it.

Settlements close enough to share some of these fires:

• Alexander
• Bedford
• Brecksville
• Garfield Heights
• Henry
• Independence

Every fire recorded in Cuyahoga County

Museums hold 2,209 specimens collected within 10 miles of Glendale between 1876 and 1975: 2,100 Animalia, 68 Plantae, 34 Fungi, 6 Protozoa, 1 incertae sedis. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. D. Huryn, A. D. Selby, A. Hall and others. Each is a physical object with a catalogue number, and each entry opens the museum's record. This is what was collected and kept, not a survey of what lives here - nothing can be concluded from a species being absent.

The federal mineral resources record lists 9 workings within 5 miles of Glendale: 5 past producers, 4 producers. 4 still produce. What was taken out: Clay, Sand and Gravel, Construction, Bloating Material, Stone, Crushed/Broken. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a quarry counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

The eight closest, with where each one stands in the county. Distances are straight-line, computed from the Geographic Names Information System coordinates.

Matched on this settlement's Geographic Names Information System number rather than its name, so it cannot be a different place of the same name in another state.

This settlement is recorded in the Geographic Names Information System as feature 1057212. The sheet list is computed by point-in-boundary test against the United States Geological Survey's historical topographic inventory.
