Elijah Lockard of Ross and Pike Co. Ohio
Iwas hunting the father of Joseph and William Lockard of Ross And Pike Co Ohio. Joseph and William married sisters in Ross County Ohio. Joseph to Magdelina Doll on 1808 Ross County Ohio. and William Lockard married Anna maria Doll on Jan. 16 1804 in Ross Co Ohio. Both brothers died in Clark County Illinois. Joseph being buried in Livingston Cemetary in Marshall Clark Co. Il. and I can't find where William is buried. I am looking at this Elijah Lockard who married twice in Ross Co Ohio I think these were much later marriages for him. In the Pike County Minute Book number two, pages 444 thru 447. Elijah Lockard age 73 years old in 1826 applied for a government pension for his service in the Military. This put him born around 1753. He signed up for service in Washington County Pa. on April 1 1782. His family of about 7 people, many who are young, no names listed. can not provide for him and his value for all of his property is 38.50. In Washington County around this time is a William and Elizabeth Lockard, possobly parents of Elijah. Does anyone know anything about this Elijah Lockard? Also someone in a earlier posting said they knew the story of William Lockard and what happen to him. I would love to know the storyCarol Sellers
