3 M ii. Stephen LOCK was born about 1756, deceased after 22
Nov 1822.

10 M ix. Joel LOCK was born in 1772 in Granville County, North Carolina. Joel is not mentioned in his brother Jonathan's will so he may have died before then, however Jonathan didn't mention Hezekiah either and he was living at that time. Maybe they had both moved away before 1822 and they no longer had contact.
+ 11 M x. Hezekiah LOCK was born about 1775 and died before 12 Jun 1844.
Second Generation
11. Hezekiah LOCK (William)[14] was born about 1775 in Granville County, North Carolina. He died before 12 Jun 1844 in Randolph County, Indiana. Hezekiah married[15] 1st Sarah FLOYD, daughter of William FLOYD[16] and Elizabeth [-?-], on 20 Aug 1799 in Granville County. George Floyd, bondsman and W. M. Sneed, Witness. Sarah was born about 1780 in Granville County. She died about 1832 in Randolph County, Indiana. Hezekiah married[17] .2nd Nancy LLOYD, probable daughter of John LLOYD and Ailsy HARRISON, on 28 Feb 1833 in Randolph County, Indiana. Nancy was born about 1801 in Guilford County, North Carolina. Nancy married Thomas Butt 12 Jun 1844, so Hezekiah Lock must have died before this date.
He is listed as Ezekiah on the 1810 Census for Granville County, North Carolina[20], with 4m under 10 (William M., James 2 unknown), 1m 10-15 (Joel), 1m 26-44 (Hezekiah), 1f under 10 (Abigail), 1f 26-44 (Sarah).

William married 1st Sarah MIDDLETON 19 Jan 1826, she must have died shortly after the marriage[41]. He married 2nd Hannah MIDDLETON on 10 Feb 1827 in Guilford County, North Carolina. Hannah was born about 1808 in North Carolina. Hannah and Sarah were the daughters of Samuel H. Middleton b.1794, Virginia, who was the son of Benedict Middleton. The family moved to North Carolina in 1798. The Middleton family later moved to Randolph County, Indiana and was closely aligned with the Locks. Hannah had brothers named Samuel H., Thomas, sisters Anna and Elsey. Luzena, Hannah's niece, married George W. Lock. There is a nice biography about the Middleton family in the Randolph County, Indiana History[42]. According to this biography. William married 1st Wealthy (Sarah W.) Middleton in 1827 and afterward Sarah (Hannah) Middleton, sisters of Thomas and Samuel Middleton and they had two children. He was a carpenter, wagon-maker and farmer. Many farmers had a trade besides farming. He was also an Episcopal Methodist for over 47 years since 1834 and was a church trustee since 1837[43]. In his 1850 houshold was Minerva age 19. On page 150A.is James W. (William’s son #32) age 21 born in Indiana and Mary A. Locke age 16 also born in Indiana.
In 1860 William was a wagon maker[46]. In 1870 he was a farmer and they had a female named May, probably Mary, age 12, their granddaughter, living with them[47]. In 1880 William, age 75 and Hannah age 72 both born in North Carolina, as were their parents, were living in Spartanburg, Greensfork Township. He was a farmer[48].
William and Hannah had the following children:
+ 32 M i. James Wesley LOCK was born in Feb 1829 and died between 1900 and 1910.

At the end of her term, Geo. Lock was to give her one good bed and bedding and one flax wheel. George Lock signed with his mark. I believe Abigail must have been George’s sister. The bondsman for her marriage was Joel Lock, another brother. Julia could have been born in North Carolina or Indiana or someplace in between.
17. Elizabeth LOCK (Hezekiah, William) was born[56].about 1815 in Guilford County, North Carolina. She died about Aug 1879 in Grant County, Indiana.

39 F v. Mary Jane LLOYD was born[60] about 1843 in Randolph County, Indiana.
40 F vi. Esley LLOYD was born[61] about 1845 in Randolph County, Indiana. I believe Esley was called Etta and her name was probably Elsey/Alsey after her grandmother.

Middleton, Jr. b.1794, Virginia, d.1856, Indiana and Christiana Tharpe b.1790, d.1855, Indiana. Samuel and Christiana were married in 1814 in North Carolina. According to the biographical sketch of Samuel H. Middleton, George and Luzena had only one child.
On 3 Oct 1839, Randolph County, Indiana[64], Geo. Lock had a 7 year old girl indentured to him for 11 years until she was 18 to teach the art of housewifery. Her name was Julia Ann Calhoon daughter of Isaac and Abigail Calhoon (# 15). At the end of her term, Geo. Lock was to give her one good bed and bedding and one flax wheel.

Eli married[70] Mary ODELL on 6 Sep 1837 in Randolph County, Indiana. Mary was born[71] about 1817 in Ohio. Eli and family moved to Tippicanoe County before 1850. Mary was probably the daughter of William Odle/Odell, who was living next door to them in 1840. The 1840 US Census for Randolph County, Indiana shows a Eli Lock between 20-30 yrs, 1f 20-30 and 2m under 5[72]. Eli and Mary were both still alive in the 1870 census. Both had passed by the 1900 census. Mary is living with of her brothers and Stephen's daughter Mary from his first marriage on the 1880c. Mary Margaret got married in 1881.
