Dear Vicki, I am wondering if you have come across a union of these two names? I saw
a Mary Cleveland Main somewhere in my surfing expeditions but can't locate it again.
The reason I am wondering is because my grandfather had as his middle name,
Cleveland. We always wondered where it came from. His grandmother was Harriet
Main. I have surmised that perhaps somewhere in her family there was a Cleveland.

Thank you for posting in the Forum. In the database, I have a Mary Cleveland (b. 1773
in CT) who married Samuel Main~~however, no information on her parentage. Samuel
was the son of Ezekial and Deborah Meachum Main. He was born about 1769 in
Stonington, New London County, CT, and died before 1835. Their children were Riley
Main (b. 1 Jul 1794 Litchfield, CT; d. 18 Feb 1881 Mercer County, IL), Johnson
Cleveland Main (d. 18 Dec 1842 Crawford County, IN), Samuel Main (d. after Aug
1850), and Debbie Main (b. 1800). Riley married Patsy Walker 19 Nov 1818 in Perry
County, IN. Johnson married Sarah Wilson. Samuel (the younger) married Permelia
Springer 21 Feb 1828 in Perry COunty, IN. Debbie married Obadiah Taylor 20 Mar 1820
in Perry COunty, IN. That is all I have on any Mains in the database~~nothing before
or after this little family, but I hope it may help you a little?

Good luck with your research!

Love and blessings,
Vikki L. Jeanne Cleveland
