One of her grandsons, William Francis Lockwood, went to Ohio on a visit, in 1840; studied law in Elyria, Lorain Co.; was elected probate judge for two terms, during the administration of Buchanan; married Mary Nichols, of Elyria; and, soon after the war began, removed to the far west-to Dakota, I think."
