Francis George Glennie (3 March 1863 – 21 June 1936) was an English banker, member of the Royal Empire Society and the son of John Glennie. He was also the great-grandson of William Glennie (1761–1828).

Born on 3 March 1863 in Blore, Staffordshire, Glennie was one of 13 children of John David Glennie and Frances Mary Finch.

He was living with his wife, Pauline, and two of their five children, Ruth (11 February 1899 – June 1989) and Brian (October 1910 – January 1929).

Glennie married Pauline Frances Straus in July 1890 in Chorlton-on-Medlock.
