John, I have seen both versions. Please look at Vann’s newsletter from February 2006 (to get there, click on Newletter category on the top right of this page). It has a lot of detail on Susanna and James. My info came from this – I will go back and check the dates and talk with Vann to see if he has additional source material that we can publish here.

Comment on Historical Excerpts of the LOCKE Family by John Locke

Hello,
I am another Locke from Halifax County, NC and my branch is just off the tree of decendents of Philip Locke that you have on your website. I have only recently began my search into my past relatives and your site has been a great help.

I am trying to connect Philip Locke to any of the Locke’s on the tree above. Have you confirmed one way or another if there is a connection?

My research has shown something slightly different and I would appreciate any comment that you could provide as to how you determined a few branches of the Philip Locke tree.

I have found that Thomas John Locke b.1764 married to (Nancy Ann Nichols) was the son of James Locke b. 1714 married to Susanna Greene. You have the same people in your tree but show them as the son of James Hulse Locke. The birthdays don’t appear to work.

Do you have any source documents as to your arrangement?

My missing branch that I referred to on your chart is from Harriett Butts. She had 3 children and your tree lists one. Nancy Virgina Locke, Endorva V Locke and Lucian Sydney Locke.

Thanks so much,

I found “The Next Book of the Locke’s”, by Jerry Harrison to be an
excellent place to search. It is published by Heritage Books.
We finally have our family place back to William Locke of Woburn
and only with the help of Jerry Harrison… I wish you all luck
as it is so great to have finally , after 20 some years, have
the connection. The book is concise and easy to follow and traces
most of Wm Locke of Woburn’s descendants.

Thank you for the sensible critique. Me & my neighbour were preparing to do some research about that. We got a good book on that matter from our local library and most books where not as influensive as your information. I am very glad to see such information!

We have been trying to find the link back to England, but so far it has eluded several of us who have been searching. There is a complete listing of what we have found so far in the following link on this site. Also, click on the other Locke Links from the main page on this blog for some other sites you can checkout.

I was excited to find this, then disappointed to find no connection to Capt. John Locke, b. 1627, who married Elizabeth Berry of Portsmouth, NH.

Is this Locke family totally different from the Nicholas Locke, b. 1574 in Brockhampton, Eng, and son Thomas Locke family of Kingston, England?

Vann,

I added an image to your post on Jesse Culp by doing the following:

Clicked on Edit post
next to Upload/Insert I clicked on the first square “add an image”
On the next screen, the tabs at the top, I selected media library (since you had uploaded it)
Next to the picture for jesse i clicked on show
then clicked on File URL
Then insert into Post
and
save all changes

Sounds complicated, but one you do it, it is pretty easy…

Let me know if this helped.
