  Father	Jacob Cloward, Sr.,   b. 17 May 1790, North Milford Hnd, Cecil Co, Maryland, USA ,   d. 26 Dec 1851, Provo, Utah Co, Utah, USA
  Mother	Catherine Ann Pluck,   b. 19 Jun 1795, Montgomery, Bucks, Pennsylvania, USA ,   d. 5 May 1878, Salem, Utah Co, Utah, USA

  Married	16 Mar 1852	Salt Lake City, Salt Lake Co, Utah, USA
  Notes	Married: Ancestral File lists marriage date as 16 Mar 1861, however this is impossible due to each of their children beind born at an earlier date. The history of James Mason Cloward indicates James was married to Mary Ann Baum in 1852. If they were in fact married in 1852 it is logical the event took place at Salt Lake City considering the family migrated to Utah in 1851.
