Who were parents of John LICKLEY?

There is some confusion of the family name that my grandfather wrote of and the spelling is unclear.We are now Likely's but my father is the last of that line and in his 80's.
Here is what I do know.
The original spelling from Scotland was Lickley (or Lickely) but was changed by my Grandather - Charles Likely - when is unknown.The orginal spelling in Europe was Lykle.
My great great grandfather migrated to this country from Scotland or England - not sure.When - I'm not sure of that either.He died in 1832.Name unknown - seems strange to have information without a name.He lived in Hillsdale, Michigan, but without a name it is hard to research.
My great grandfather was Jacob D. Lickly born Jan 19th, 1826 and died June 28th, 1894.
Can you help?
