My Teacher, Margaret Schooley Cleveland


Source: Ancestry.com
Note:  This graphic contains information that is partially correct.  However, I do not believe that my teacher, Margaret Schooley Cleveland, was born in 1541!  Multiple files may have been scrambled (as opposed to data entries errors); it happened to my files, too.

Mrs. Margaret Cleveland was a teacher in the Swartz Creek, Michigan, school system.  Her *husband's Cleveland ancestry meshes with mine early on with Moses Cleveland and Ann Winn.  This book is a comprehensive source for Cleveland genealogy.  Mrs. Cleveland's husband's ancestor was Josiah, who was my Edward's brother (my Edward's son married a Mayflower descendant).
