I am not saying he isn't a Lock(e), I am just saying I have no record of it. Loocke is a typical spelling error in the old records, I will have to refer to this 1810 record and see what I make of it. Because of my vast interest in Virginia and Kentucky Lock(e)'s, if Thomas Lock(e) is in fact a Lock(e), I have over looked him. When I have a man who I question the spelling of his surname in one census, I try to find him in other census records to see what surname he is listed as under the other census records. So because this Thomas isn't listed on my transcribed census records, at the time I must have concluded he wasn't a Lock(e), that he was of another surname. But I will go back to the 1810 census soon and double check. Before we mention any more Lock(e)'s, lets try to determine if Thomas is one or not.
