Feb. 10, 1863 he was joined in marriage with Rebecca Ann Taylor. Two children were born to this union, Mrs. Mary Minerva Downing and a daughter who died in infancy.

In 1863 he became a member of the I.O.O.F. and remained in that order to the close of life. Possibly no man in the county has held membership in that order for as long a term of years. The members of the lodge of which he was a member faithfully attended him in his last illness and performed the burial service at the grave. Mr. Locke was an industrious man and secured a nice property. He was an honest man and was highly respected by his friends and acquaintances. His wife and daughter survive him and mourn their loss. Funeral services conducted by Rev. C Springer of Troy, Iowa, were held at the residence and interment occurred at Troy cemetery.
