In reply to: J.M. Cleveland, Jr. 's message, "General Benjamin Cleveland" on Tue, May 29 2001, 23:32:59

Benjamin Cleveland is also my great, great, great grandfather. According to my information he was a Colonel instead of a General however. I don't know which is correct. He is buried in Hollomon Creek Cemetery which is on a dirt road about 5 miles West of my house in Louvale (Stewart County), Georgia. His wife Amelia Hooper Cleveland is also buried there as well as several other Clevelands. His daughter was Harriett Cleveland Johnston, who was my great, great grandmother. She was married to Thomas Johnston. They are also buried at Hollomon along with many more of their clan. There is also a J. M. (James Monroe) Cleveland buried there. I think he was Col. Cleveland's son judging from the dates on his grave. He may very well be your namesake. You can find a registry of those who are buried at Hollomon by searching on Google with the following search string : Hollomon Creek Cemetery Stewart Co Ga .
