1844 - On December 2nd, 1844, "personally came Rachel STEENROD, resident of Meade township, County of Belmont, State of Ohio, who deposes and says: I am the sister of David LOCKWOOD deceased, late a pensioner of the United States. I was present at the marriage of my brother David to Rebecca THOMAS, --- They were married in Washington County, in the State of Pennsylvania, by the Rev'd John McMILLAN on the 5th day of April, 1792. I have often seen in their possession the family Bible, from which the paper annexed to the declaration of Rebecca LOCKWOOD has been this day taken. I know that paper to be the genuine and original family record. The names there written 'David LeWOOD' and 'Rabeka LeWOOD' are intended for David LOCKWOOD and Rebeka LOCKWOOD, the L being a abbreviation of the word Lock, as often used by my brother David. My brother David LOCKWOOD died in November, 1840 and Rebeka LOCKWOOD, who has made the foregoing declaration, is his widow. - Rachel STEENROD."
