"The Genealogy of the Cleveland and Cleaveland"

Page 600 of Volume IV, shows 12 people who expressed an  interest in having their portrait included in Volume IV of the genealogy. Additional information or portraits were not included with  volume IV. Since Volume IV was never printed, I thought it proper to include what little information about these people was available. Most of the information comes from Ancestry.com. I do not have biographical information. There is no photo available that I can find for several people shown below. If a descendant of any of these people has a photo, or biography, of their ancestor, and is willing to share it with others, please contact me.
