Mikhail Hlinski was the most illustrious member of the family: he studied at the German university, took part as a knight in the Italian Wars, was the most powerful man in Lithuania in the 1500s, but later emigrated with his brothers to Muscovy and helped the Russians to retake the city of Smolensk.

 Australian Information from Wikipedia
Vasili also took advantage of the difficult position of Sigismund of Poland to capture Smolensk, the great eastern fortress of Lithuania (1512), chiefly through the aid of the rebel Lithuanian, Prince Mikhail Hlinski, who provided him with artillery and engineers.
The loss of Smolensk was an important injury inflicted by Muscovy on Lithuania in the course of the Russo-Lithuanian Wars and only the exigencies of Sigismund compelled him to acquiesce in its surrender (1522).
In 1526, despite much opposition from the clergy, he divorced his barren wife, Solomonida Saburova, and married Princess Elena Glinskaya, the daughter of a Serbian princess and niece of his friend Mikhail Hlinski.
