                                    Toensing, the Minnesota Journal of the House, 1856; and The History of Minnesota: from the French Explorations to the Present Time, 1873 list his last name as Cleaveland.  The Minnesota Legislative Manual, 1889, History of Hennepin County and the City of Minneapolis, 1881, and History of the Minnesota State Agricultural Society, 1910 list Cleveland.
He was listed as being 36 years old in 1856.  So he must have been born around 1820.
