Surnames: LOCKRIDGE PATRICK WEST BELL JONES Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/UAB.2ACE/1792 Message Board Post: John William LOCKRIDGE (cooper and lumberman) was b. 1 Mar 1857-8, in Dupont, Jefferson Co., IN; married twice. First, Mary PATRICK, about 1877, probably in Jefferson or Jackson Co., IN. Their children were: 1. Harry Norborne Lockridge, b. 16 Sep 1878, Seymour, Jackson Co., IN; m. Lydia Pearl JONES 25 Aug 1898; d.26 Jan 1933, Shelbyville, Shelby Co, KY. No Issue 2. Mamie (Mary?) Lockridge, b c. 1885?; m. ? WEST; her son John WEST b. 1910. 3. daughter 4. daughter I believe John owned property in N. Madison, Jefferson Co,, IN, from 1884 to 1887 when he and Mary moved to Clinton Co., IN. Their surname could have been spelled Lochridge, Loughridge, Laughridge--just however the clerk-of-the-day thought it sounded. . Mary died (of T.B., per family legend) in 1891; John William re-married to Annie Lee BELL, (of Lawrenceburg, Anderson Co KY) and they, Harry, and Mamie lived in different places in KY for quite a while. I am seeking any information about this first marriage, children, etc. I have details of his parents, the second marriage and descendants, death date & place, and will be glad to share.
