Frank, I was mistaken.  Just ran across a copy I had made of a page of 
the
Steuban Countiy (IN) history:

  "George D. Cleveland is the only living son of David H. Cleaveland,
  one of the pioneers of Jackson Township.  David Cleveland was born 
in
  New York State, June 1, 1816.  In 1835, with his  elder brother, 
Amasa
  Maroe Cleveland, he came to Steuban County, Ind.  He lived with his
  brother till his marriage, and then lived on Pretty Prairie, 
Lagrange
  County, for a time. Then lived on land he purchased when first he 
came
  to the county, on section 22, Jackson Township, where he lived until
  his death, August 23, 1849. He was married in November, 1837, to 
Eliza
  Littlefield, a native of New York, born February 2, 1812, daughter 
of
  Edmond and Amy Littlefield, who were the earliest settlers of that
  section [sic]."

Before I reviewed this I had thought it probable that they married in 
NY before
going to Indiana.  That would have explained, you see, why I didn't 
find a
record of the marriage when I spend a few days in the basement of the 
courthouse
there in Angola.

I have no other information about Eliza's origins.
   
Come to think of it, I guess it's possible that David went to NY in 
'37 to marry her and bring her back to Indiana, having extablished 
himself there. But I still don't know where in NY.
