August Franz Globensky, born August Franciszek Glabinski (or Glaubenskindt, Globenski, Glanbenkind;January 1, 1754 – April 19, 1830), was a Polish physician and one of the founding members of the Polish community in Canada.
He was born near Berlin in the Kingdom of Prussia to Joseph Glaubenskindt, a royal notary originally from Poland, and Marie Richter, a German.
The surname Glaubenskindt appeared on his baptismal certificate and on his army enrollment register.As Glaubenskindt is not normally used as a surname in Germany, it is likely Joseph acquired this sobriquet from a poetic Germanicization of Glowinski, a common Polish surname.
He only used the name Globensky after his migration to Canada.
