In the 19th - beginning of the 20th century - the village of Mozyr district of the Minsk province.
In 1897, about 50 Jews lived in Hlynne (c. 6%),
In 1910 - 5-6 Jews.
Jews of Hlynne were Stolin Hasids. There were a synagogue and Jewish cemetery.
Here's what the Magazine "Jewish antiquity" wrote, which was published in St. Petersburg in 1909-1930:
Now (1910), only 5-6 Jews live in Hlynne (residents in 1897 - 838), but the remnants of antiquity are suggested that there was once a significant Jewish settlement.
There is an old cemetery with wooden monuments, 50 years ago occupied more space, as well as a synagogue, in which "minion" have not gathered for a long time. Only during the holidays, the Stolin's tsadik sends Hasids so that a worship will take place on the solemn days.
