General Notes: Husband - John Cleland

---

He was a lad of fourteen years when he came to America. His education was limited, as he had a great deal of hard work to do, and was thus deprived of an opportunity for extensive learning. He learned the trade of a stone mason, following that business for some time. After his marriage he resided in Hanover township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, thence moving, about 1846, to Coshocton County, Ohio, where he cleared up a farm, which he soon sold at a good profit and then took another from which he also realized a handsome profit. After disposing of these farms, he returned to Washington County, locating in Hanover township about one and one-fourth miles northeast of Florence, and there passed his remaining days. Year by year new additions were made to his lands, and he owned nearly 500 acres at the time of his death. In politics he was a lifelong Democrat.
