After I had researched 150 years of my family history, I found a connecti on with the Lockwood Family from the MA, CT, and NY area. Over 100 years a go, several Lockwoods attempted to record all known information about the ir family in a book, The Descendants of Robert Lockwood, by F. Holden a nd E. Dunbar Lockwood, PA 1889. Although their work was not documented a nd is riddled with errors, I found it useful as clues. In studying the Loc kwoods, I also found that I was reviewing many major events in American Hi story!
The Lockwoods came to Massachusetts with Gov. Winthrop's fleet, 10 years a fter the Mayflower. The 400 new arrivals could not stay in Salem because t here was not enough fresh water, so they started a new settlement called B oston. There were Lockwoods involved in the witch trials, Indian fights, r afting down the Ohio River to new settlements in the west, the '49-ers go ld rush', and patriots in every war. Since the book is out of print a nd in the public domain, I have abstracted much of the following informati on from it. I hope you will find it helpful.
The numbers in brackets [*] preceeding each family name were assigned by t hese authors. I have used their numbering system since so many first nam es are repeated through the generations. Additional descendants have be en added without numbers in brackets. Although every effort has been ma de to correct known errors, this information has not been verified. Ma ny of the corrections reflect the work of Donald L. Jacobus, 1881 (DLJ). T he following information is not in GEDCOM form. It is presented in simp le outline and is searchable using the alphabetized indexes.
Four major Lockwood Families were founded the northeast. The families of E dmund Lockwood's sons, Edmund and Robert, are separately listed, as are t he families of Abraham of Rhode Island and Richard of Maryland.
Elinor, wife of Nicholas Knapp arrived on the ship, the Arbella, with Edmu nd's sons, Edmund and Robert. There has been misinformation linking h er to the Lockwood Family. On Tue., Jan 05, 1999, 'No known record suppor ts such claims!'
