Glynn Wolfe


Glynn Wolfe, also known as Scotty Wolfe, was a Baptist minister who resided in Blythe, California. He was famous for holding the record for the largest number of monogamous marriages. His shortest marriage lasted 19 days, and his longest lasted eleven years. Three of his marriages were to women he had previously divorced: remarried Charlotte Devane in 1936, after divorcing earlier that year; remarried Katherine Archer in 1949 after divorcing the previous year; and Sharon Goodwin in 1960 after divorcing the previous year. Only five of his marriages ended with the death of a spouse, surviving his 1st, 8th, 9th and 23rd wife, before being survived by his 30th wife. His longest marriage was for 11 years, to his 28th wife, Christine Camacho, who was 37 years his junior.
Wolfe's final marriage was to Linda Wolfe, who holds the record for the most-married woman. The marriage was a publicity stunt, and a week after the wedding, Essex went back to her hometown in Indiana, but she kept her married name.
Wolfe died in Redlands, California, 45 days before his 89th birthday. He had approximately 40
children. His body went unclaimed. He was eventually buried in Los Angeles. None of the 29 women he legally married, and none but one of his children, attended the funeral service.
