Hello Patsy,

As I told you in my e-mail, I don't think my book will help you a whole lot since it is on my Ibra Harris Cleveland & wife Piety Adams.

The name of Jacob's father, as far as I can find records, was John Cleveland. My reference is;

1767 Tithables, Pittsylvania County Virginia. Taken by Captain John Ward.

"John Cleveland
Thomas Hardy, Peter Lee, Negroes; Harry, Jack, Abram, Bess, Tom, Ben, Nant, Jack, Dick, Matt, Tom, John, Thomas, Nant."

Pittsylvania was formally Halifax County, Virginia.

I believe that this was the father of Jacob Cleveland. Jacob had Pittsylvania County, Virginia connections.

Jacob named a slave "old Tom" in his will. John Cleveland claimed two Toms in 1767.

1782 Pittsylvania County census lists a John Cleven (sic) with 4 in his household.
