He laid out the city of Orange, California. ==Early life and career== Glassell was born in Culpeper County, Virginia, was appointed a midshipman in the United States Navy from the state of Alabama (March 15, 1848). When he was still a midshipman, his ship, the ''St. Laurence'' was sent to The Great Exhibition (1851 ) in London.
