Chicago Tribune, 14 Nov 1896:
Death of W. Cleaver. A Pioneer
He Came To Chicago In 1834 and Had Ever Since Been Active In Business
Here.
William Cleaver, who came to Chicago in 1834, when the settlement
contained less than 500 people, died at his home, No. 20 East
Forty-sixth St., yesterday morning at the age of 81. His funeral will
take place on Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock at the family residence.
Interment being at Oakwoods.
Born in London, England in 1815, Mr. Cleaver came to Canada with his
parents and located at Toronto in 1831. Three years later, he came to
Chicago and immediately started the Chicago Soap and Candle Works on
the river bank where is now the Madison St. bridge. Two years later,
he opened a grocery store, his establishment being the second of its
kind in the little settlement.
In 1855, Mr. Cleaver, who in 1849 had joined the gold seeker's
caravan to California, moved out to what is now 38th Street and Lake
Ave, then called Cleaverville. Here, he managed a general store and
served as postmaster. In 1878 he suffered a general financial loss,
but soon after, cleared up the wreck and established himself in the
laundry business, in which he was engaged at the time of his death.
He was married twice, first to Mary Whitely, and after her death, to
Sophia C. Zimmermann, the latter marriage took place in 1855. Six
children survive him, three by each marriage; W.H., F.C., A.W., and
H.E. Cleaver and Mrs. T.F. Swann and Mrs. G.N. Brown.
