The Cleveland (Cleaveland) Family
Our branch of the Cleveland family is descended from Moses Cleveland who came from Ipswich, County Suffolk, England about 1635. According to family tradition, he sailed from London, England and arrived in America in the year 1635. He first landed somewhere in Massachusetts, probably Plymouth or Boston. 1 The Hawley and Cleveland families came together in Springfield, Bradford County, Pennsylvania when Jerusha Bushnell Cleveland married John Hawley (II) on January 1, 1840.
