While she was born in New York state, she was probably living in Erie County, Pennsylvania by the time of her marriage. Probably sister of Edward S. Halstead who lived with her in 1860.

In about 1846, she was married to David Crocker, son of Oliver and Boudica Crocker. Their daughter Adelaide Laura "Adda" Crocker was born in December of 1847. David Crocker died of consumption in May 1850, two months after his own father had died.

In the 1850 census, Adelaide is living with her paternal grandmother, paternal aunt and that aunt's children while Patience is living elsewhere in the town of Girard with the Morton family.

Somewhere between 1850 - 1858, Patience married George Wyckoff and was reportedly widowed. As late as 1855, reports of the guardianship of Adelaide are still being made in Erie County with no notes that she's moved away.

In 1858, Patience married Dr. William Murat Cleveland in Painesville, Lake County, Ohio which is some 60 miles from Girard, Pennsylvania.

In the 1860 census, she and her husband appear together in the census of Madison, Lake County, Ohio and again in 1870 together in Chicago, Illinois. In October 1874, Patience filed for divorce from William Cleveland on the grounds of adultery.

I can find neither her nor Adelaide (nor her most recent known husband) in the 1880 census anywhere, though there is an 1879 newspaper article in California noting the arrival of Mrs. P. J. Cleveland of Chicago.

By 1900, both Patience and Adelaide are living in Pueblo, Colorado with Adelaide now being married to Louis S. Stern, a long-time inhabitant of the West. Adelaide's daughter Agnes L. Taylor/Paine Hewson is also living there in 1900. Agnes later moved to California where her husband John Leonard Bell/Hewson died and she married Andrew Wiley Hooper. They moved back to Pueblo for her health, but she died there in 1905 and is buried in this same cemetery, as is her infant daughter Olive Adelaide Hewson. After her death, her two remaining children were raised in California by Walter and Emma Florence (Foster) Teller.
