     American Pioneer and Soldier in North Carolina. He is best remembered for his service as a colonel in the North Carolina militia during the War of Independence, and in particular for his role in the American victory at the Battle of Kings Mountain. Benjamin Cleveland was born in Orange County, Virginia, the fourth child of John and Elizabeth [nee Coffee] Cleveland, and was of English descent. He moved to the area which would become Wilkes County, North Carolina in 1769. There, Cleveland built his estate, "Roundabout," near what is today Ronda, North Carolina. He was noted in the early history of Wilkes County, and is known to have worked as a hunter, trapper, farmer, carpenter, and surveyor.[citation needed] By the time of the American Revolution, Cleveland was the wealthiest and most prominent citizen in the county.[citation needed] A large, heavy set man – around six feet tall and weighing over 300 lbs in his prime – he was called "Old Roundabout." Cleveland married Mary Graves, a sister of Susannah Graves, the wife of Revolutionary War patriot and frontiersman, General Joseph Martin (for whom Martinsville, Virginia, is named.) Cleveland was elected to the North Carolina House of Commons in 1778 and to the North Carolina Senate in 1779. At the beginning of the American Revolution, Cleveland was commissioned a colonel in the North Carolina militia. Until Lord Cornwallis invaded in 1780, the fighting in North Carolina consisted of guerrilla warfare between patriots ("Whigs") and "Tories". Cleveland became known as the "Terror of the Tories" for his treatment of Loyalists.[citation needed] In 1779, two Tories looted the home of George Wilfong, a patriot and friend of Cleveland. The Tories used Wilfong's clothes line to chase away his horses. The marauders were captured by Cleveland's men, who had them hanged using the clothes line they had stolen. In revenge, a group of Tories led by Captain William Riddle kidnapped Cleveland. Cleveland's men rescued him and captured Riddle and two others. All three were hanged from the same tree, which became known as the "Tory Oak," and was for years an historic landmark behind the old Wilkes County courthouse (now the Wilkes Historical Museum). In 1780, General Lord Cornwallis led a British army into the Carolinas, and won several victories over the patriots. Major Patrick Ferguson, one of Cornwallis's commanders, led an army of Tories into the North Carolina mountains to crush the rebels there. A large force of mountain men attacked Ferguson at Kings Pinnacle, an isolated ridge on the North Carolina-South Carolina border. Cleveland played a key role in the ensuing Battle of Kings Mountain. According to legend, Cleveland climbed up Rendezvous Mountain and blew his horn to summon some 200 Wilkes County militiamen.[3][4] He led them in the battle. Cleveland's horse was shot from under him, and Major Ferguson was himself killed in the battle. Cleveland's brother, Robert, is said to have rallied the militiamen during the heat of the battle, contributing to the patriot victory.[citation needed] Cleveland claimed Ferguson's white stallion as a "war prize", and rode it home to his estate of Roundabout. After the war, Cleveland moved to the South Carolina frontier and was a commissioner in the Pendleton District. He died at his home in Oconee County, South Carolina in 1806 of heart dropsy. An obelisk monument to him stands on private property just north of U.S. Route 123 about 160 yds (145 m) east of the Madison Baptist Church in the Madison Community of Oconee County. He was buried about 1 mi (1.6 km) away in a private cemetery. Cleveland County, North Carolina and Cleveland, Tennessee are named in his honor. A historical marker dedicated to Cleveland reads: "Colonel in Revolution, Whig leader in battle of Kings Mountain, state legislator. Home was on 'The Round About,' one mile southwest."

     Jemima Cleveland married James Rutherford Wyly (Sr.)
;
His 1st ? wife
From James Rutherford WYLY's FAG Memorial #66105212: "James Wyly (also spelled Wyley / Wylie) was married three times. His first wife was Jemima Cleveland. The DAR states that there was no evidence she was the daughter of Colonel Benjamin Cleveland of the Battle of King's Mountain fame (Find A Grave Memorial# 31176869) even though several descendants have joined the SAR through her line naming Colonel Cleveland as the lineal ancestor. (Reference DAR Ancestor Number A023058 at dar.org, SAR Membership: 96915, and SAR Membership: 37279.) Jemima Cleveland was the mother of General James Rutherford Wyly of 1812 fame. She may have had other children as well. Jemima Cleveland died in 1810."

From Cleveland [1899:III:2083]: "JEMIMA5 CLEVELAND (Benjamin4 John3, Alexander2, Alexander1), died in La. perhaps 1810, m. 1870, as ist wife, James Wyly or Wyley, b. Iredell co., N. C, d. Blount co., Tenn., 1842. Ch.:

Jemima Cleveland died in 1810 at East Feliciana Parish, Louisiana, USA; Cleveland [1899:III:2083] says d. 1810, but later information regarding a suite by her heirs indicates she died in 1832.2,3,4
Jemima Cleveland was buried in 1832 at Burial location unknown ; From Find A Grave:
BIRTH     1765, Yadkin, Rowan County, North Carolina, USA
DEATH     1832 (aged 66–67), East Feliciana Parish, Louisiana, USA
BURIAL     Unknown
     Jemima may have been born near the Cumberland Gap area - which was likely considered North Carolina until Tennessee's statehood in 1796. No one knows who raised her. When married to James Wyly she was Mother of Eliz Wyly, Gen. James R. Wyly b. 1782 (War of 1812) and others?
     There were rumors that Jemima may have been an illegitimate daughter of Benjamin Cleveland but supposedly his family denied the relationship.

     "Using information provided by Grace S. Green, a professional genealogist; Bill Russell, a descendant of Jemima Cleveland through her daughter Elizabeth Cleveland Wyly; and information downloaded from the Coffey Family Tree, it would appear that Jemima Cleveland was the illegitimate daughter of Col. Benjamin Cleveland and a Cherokee Indian maiden. Following are the actual quotes from Grace S. Green and Bill Russell.
     "Grace S. Green, a professional genealogist, provided the following information about Jemima Cleveland: "Jemima Cleveland was baptized 19 Jun 1913 in Ebenezer Baptist Church, Amite, Mississippi (later Louisiana) age 45. From what we have learned so far, she was part Cherokee Indian, thus her late baptism. East Feliciana Parish, Louisiana Volume II, Hephzibah Babtist Church Records by Mary Ann Smith Sagely. Copyright 1985, Clinton, Louisiana. Jemima Cleveland and Daniel Cleveland were members. They were among a group of early settlers that started this Church."
     "On 8 Sep 2007 Bill Russell posted information re: "Jemima Cleveland illegitimate daughter of Col. Benjamin Cleveland. I descended from Elizabeth Cleveland Wyly who married Charles Ingram and John Hall. She was the daughter of Jemima Cleveland and James Wyly, and her brother was James Rutherford Wyly who married a descendant of John Sevier...Sarah Hawkins Clark, I believe.
     "Jemima and James Wyly split up in the late 1780's, and she allegedly married Evan Edwards and had several children. He was killed by Indians in the Cumberland Gap in 1792.
     "Jemima was the illegitimate daughter of Col. Benjamin Cleveland but was reconciled with him around 1792 when she relocated to South Carolina and lived near him. In 1794 she married a cousin, Daniel Cleveland."
