The FamilySearch entry, PID K8MB-5R6 for John Adam Cline (about 1771–10 September 1844), has only one source attached as of 29 December 2021, and it is for the marriage of a Polly Cline to Thornton F Violett in Switzerland, Indiana (the first bulleted source listed in this profile). The image of the record includes that her father, "Mr. Cline", gave permission for the license to be issued - which it was, on 24 April 1820. This source serves to confirm that Polly's maiden name was Cline, her father was alive as of 24 April 1820, and she (presumably) married Thornton F. Violett. It does not say her father's name was John nor give the names of his parents.
Lacking any support that this profile represents the son John named in the will, dated 1 December 178x, of Michael Kline of Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, I intend to detach it from Michael's profile and that of his wife, Catarina.
Polly, married in 1820, cannot be the Polly, daughter of John Cline of Indiana, who was 7 in 1822 - see the pension application citation for that Polly's father on the profile of Bennett Cline (abt.1804-1881), who is also named in the application.
Looking at their profiles, I don't see that either is clearly identified as the John Klein named in Michael Klein's c1782 will. Pending research that does and if no objection I propose that he (son John) gets a section on Michael and/or Catarina Shuffert-3's profile with links to this and the other John Cline, but that both are disconnected from their profiles.
update - received reply that they were probably not duplicate profiles; this profile for John Adam Cline has been detached from the profiles of Klein-396 and his wife Shuffert-3.
Thanks! I've added a lot of notes to the mother's profile - see Shuffert-3#Research Notes... some info about son John from that profile:
A land transfer dated 21 October 1799, recorded in Cabarrus County, names three of his sons: George, John, and Daniel.<ref name=3sons>Cabarrus County NC Court of P&QS. </ref> Location Note - Cabarrus County was formed from Mecklenburg County in 1792.<ref name=maps>North Carolina County Formation Maps</ref>
John<ref name=3sons /> Cline, married to Rachel Shaver, cousin to Leah Blackwelder... - duplicates? John Adam Cline - John M Cline?
Rachel Shaver marriage has a citation (on your Cline-397 profile), but I can't access it:

No source included for Anna Maria Leinbaugh marriage. The Cline-1793 profile has a citation (also Ancestry, which I can't access) for a possible 2nd marriage in Indiana:

Maybe "follow the land"? No description of the land included in the info about the Oct. 1799 land record; the father's will has acreage - Wills and Estate Papers (Mecklenburg County), 1663-1978; Ancestry.com Ancestry Record 9061 #535708 * Ancestry Sharing Link
Cheers, Liz
edit - removed link from son John to Klein-397 (which has since been merged into a profile for someone else).
