Five loose pages from an 1825 Family Bible are onsale at ebay.
http://cgi.msn.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2983755486&category=20926
Below are the names and dates from a photo of one of the pages.
Asa Cleaveland Jr. Born Sept. 26, 1786
Sally Galusha Born Oct. 12, 1784
Childrens Names
Isaac Cleaveland born Jan. 1, 1808.
Henry Cleaveland born Dec. 18, 1810.
Jacob Cleaveland born March 30, 1815.
Abigail Cleaveland born Feb. 20, 1817.
Amy Cleaveland born Jan. 20, 1820.
Eliza Cleaveland born March 8, 1822.
Molly Cleaveland born April 6, 1824.
Note that, as far as I can tell, all the names and dates were written in the same hand, with the same pen, and with the same ink, at the same time. In other words, the names and dates in the bible were backfilled -- which they would have to have been given the publication date of the bible.
It's unclear from the description whether the other four pages contain family information.
There are several files on this family at WorldConnect.com. The parents of Asa CLEVELAND are given as Asahel/Asa CLEVELAND & Mary DIBBLE. Sally's parents are not given.
