Jack, Do you have any information on Amanda's brother Allen Cleveland, son of Jacob Cleveland and Martha Rhody Lyons. It is Allen's son Henry Clay Cleveland that I descend from. There is a little mystery about him. My grandmother (Henry Clay Cleveland's granddaughter) used to tell me stories about her grandfather and how he just showed up one day after the Civil War in Rock Mart and met his future wife Elizabeth Betty Scott. Do you know where the Cleveland cemetery in Henry county is located?

Stephanie, All I have on Allen Cleveland at the present is that he was a farmer and a dentist and also a Primitive Baptist preacher for over 60 years in Henry county. He supposedly was the last of the brothers to die, in 1877. I have a copy of a letter from early 1900s which state that the Clevelands in Henry county were well off, being blacksmiths, farmers, dentists and preachers. I'll see if I have more in my files. There is a family tradition told to me by my grandmother that Amanda and her hired help captured a run-away yankee soldier and turned him in to the yankee lieutenant who wrote her family name down in the sweat band of his hat. When they came through Locust Grove later on the way to the sea, the lieutenant would not allow his troops to burn their farm nor take what food they had left.
