E.nrraTen uu1 S1ec,rot7pera. Cb.loa,'o. PREF.A.CE. THE inscription on the page opposite must be accepted as the apology, if any is needed, for this publication. The compiler had his attention directed to the subject as set forth, in the spring of the Centennial year of the Nation, and up to the year 1871, his knowledge of Benjamin and Rachel Cleveland and their decendants, was confined to the posterity of their son Rufus Cleveland, his paternal grandfather. Nor .could he have accurately told, if his life had depended upon the telling, who either the brother or the sisters of his grandfather married. The letter of " Benjamin and Raebel Cleveland," as given on page 10, containing certain references to" Zenas," and" Hovey," and" Ham­ blin," and "Ephraim Pearson," was all that he bad as a foundation to build upon, and the access, of course, to early township or other public records in the New England States. The result of the researches made in leisure hours, while engaged in exacting business pursuits, is nnw presented. That these records are free from errors it would be folly to pretend, and it is earnestly desired that any found should be pointed out, and made known, so that they may not appear in any future edition. No merit as a literary performance is claimed or deserved, but as evidence of earnest, persevering research, beset and opposed by every discouraging obstacle imaginable, it bears its own testimony, and will at least be appreciated by those who have had any experience in such labor. The abbreviations used are so few and so_ apparent in their meaning, as to need no explanation. The small figures attached to various names, and most likely to puzzle the reader if unused to such publications, are employed to desig- 4 Prefuc1". nate the different or successive generations. The starting point is the common ancestor, Moses Cleveland, of Woburn, and he is designated as MosEs CLE,ELAXD.1 His children are the second generation, and his grandchildren are of the third generation, and so on. The Index is elaborate enough to enable the reader to find any particular, family readily, and will probably prove sufficient for all practical purposes. The fact that comparatively few of the descendants of Benjamin and Rachel Cleveland have either sought or acquired public distin?tion, does not militate against the publication of these records. It will be noted that generally their descendants were devoted to agricultural . pursuits, and belonged especially to the pmduci11g cla~,.,:.~-the "bone and sinew" of the country-the honest, frugal and industrious citizens of the cmnmonwealth. All honor to them, then, for such as these the nation can not do without. And, in conclusion, it ma.y be appropriately said of them, as a whole, iu the language of the poet Gray- 1 '' Far from the madding crowd's ignoble strife, Their sober wishes never learned to stray; Along the cool, sequestered vale 01' life They kept the noiseless tenor of their way." ANCESTRY OF BEN.JAMIN CLEVELAND. MosEs CLEVELAND,1 of Woburn, Mass., 1641, appears to be the common ancestor of all the '' Clevelands '' of New Eng­ land. Family tradition says he emigrated to this country in 1635, from Ipswich, Suffolk, Eng., an indentured apprentice to a housewright or master builder. From the Woburn town records it appears Moses Cleveland was made a freeman in 1643, no doubt upon attaining the age of 21. Sept. 26, 1648, he married Miss Ann Winn, daughter of Edward and Joanna Winn, of Woburn. She was also a native of England. The date and place of her birth not learned, nor does the date of her death appear on the town records, but the death of Moses Cleveland occurred on the9thJan., 1701-2. (SeeAppendixA.) They had a family of eleven children-seven sons and four daughters, (one child only, the first Joanna, dying in childhood), as follows, all born in Woburn : · Q 1. Moses,' b. Sept. 1, 1651; m.

And perhaps there were other children not recorded, as the records were evidently very imperfectly kept during these years. Hinman, in his Catalogue of the Puritan Settlers of Con­ necticut, gives two more children, Ephraim, s and Margaret, s to wife Persis. So far as Ephraim8 is concerned, he may be correct, as there was an Ephraim Cleveland who d. in Can­ terbury, March 13, 1711. Margaret,S he says, m. Gideon Cable inlTI~ • . Samuel Cleveland2 was one of the earliest settlers in Plain­ field, (or Canterbury), Conn., probably about 1694, and was followed by his brother Josiah, 2 of Chelmsford, Mass., soon after, and subsequently by his brothers Ed ward, 2 of Kingston, R. I., and Isaac,2 of Woburn. Canterbury was not incorpo­ rated as a town until 1703, and was previously a part of Plainfield.

    Alvin P. Hovey and Abraham Lincoln's “Broken

    Alvin P. Hovey and Abraham Lincoln’s “Broken Promises”: The Politics of Promotion Earl J. Hess* The promotion of Alvin P. Hovey to brevet major general of volunteers in July, 1864, was an incident of some note during the Civil War’s Atlanta campaign. Angered by what he considered a political favor given to an unworthy officer, General William T. Sherman protested vigorously. President Abraham Lincoln, who had granted the promotion, responded, and historians have used this exchange to illustrate the personalities of both men. Thus overshadowed, Hovey’s case receded into obscurity.’ It is unfortunate that Hovey’s promotion, as such, has not received more attention, for his story is informative concerning the way in which military appointments in the Civil War were intertwined with political considerations. Hovey’s was not a sim- plistic case of military patronage, as Sherman believed, but an illustration of the mutable boundaries between politics and the military in a citizen army and the effects of that combination on the life of a man who successfully worked in both spheres. Hovey was a political general as were John A. Logan, Frank P. Blair, and other northwesterners. Unlike them, he failed to make max- imum use of his talents as politician and as general to achieve advancement of the kind he desired. Hovey’s antebellum career established him as a significant personality in Indiana politics. Born in 1821 near Mount Vernon, Indiana, Hovey practiced law before embarking on a brief tour of duty in the Mexican War. He was a Democratic delegate to the * Earl J.

    NPS Form 10-900-a (Rev. 8/2002) OMB No. 1024-0018 (Expires 5-31-2012) United States Department of the Interior Prospect Park ResidentialPut Here Historic District National Park Service Name of Property Hennepin County, MN County and State National Register of Historic Places N/A Continuation Sheet Name of multiple listing (if applicable) Section number 8 Page 1 NARRATIVE STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE The civil engineers who laid out the Prospect Park plats, Samuel Harlan Baker and Joseph H. Gilmore, were influenced by the work of their contemporary, Horace William Shaler (H. W. S.) Cleveland, and the picturesque landscape designs that are a hallmark of the era. Upon the framework of these plats, the residents shaped Prospect Park’s character and appearance. The neighborhood is significant as the home of the first community association in the city of Minneapolis, the Prospect Park Improvement Association (PPIA). The PPIA quickly established itself as a major influence, effecting changes ranging from the removal of weeds to the construction of the neighborhood’s iconic water tower. The community’s culture was enriched by its proximity to the University of Minnesota, which drew many academics to Prospect Park. The Prospect Park Historic District is one of three suburban-type developments that were established in Minneapolis in the late nineteenth century. While the architectural design in the other two, Kenwood and Washburn Park, is relatively homogeneous, following the pattern of many of the city’s neighborhoods, the houses in Prospect Park display a spectrum of the residential styles that appeared in Minneapolis during the late nineteenth century and the twentieth century.
