LOCKE
I am trying to research the Meigs County, TN origins of my branch ofthe Locke Family. The Locke's that I am researching came from Meigs,and settled in the Indian Territory (now the state of Oklahoma) inthelate 1800's. I believe there were two, possibly three,. brothers whocame to Eastern Oklahoma after the Civil War. I am not sure of theirexact names, but one was called "Major" Locke. This "Major" Locke wasin the Civil War, but I don't believe he ever held the rank of Major.His brother might have been a Benjamin Locke, who held the rank ofCaptain, and is buried in Antlers, Oklahoma. Some of theirDescendants include: Victor Murat Locke, Elisha Sharp(e) Lock, ElishaFrank Locke, "Uncle Dick" Locke. Some of the Descendants marriedintothe Choctaw Indian Tribe, and became active in politics and Indianaffairs, and several held positions as either Chiefs, or possiblyBureau of Indian Affairs agents with the Choctaws. One of themfounded the town of Antlers, OK.
