Description
Excerpt from A History and Genealogy of Captain John Locke (1627-1796) Of Portsmouth and Rye, N. H., And His Descendants: Also of Nathaniel Locke of Portsmouth, and a Short Account of the History of the Lockes in England
The Locke Genealogy, like most family histories, was first started out of a curiosity, which finally led to duty; curiosity to learn who and what was our family; duty to preserve that which was going so rapidly by the deaths of those older ones whose early days, sitting in the home circle, were filled with local and family events, which became memorized, and so were handed down to us. It was and is this class which has made genealogies possible, supplying us with facts not contained in the early meager town records, and happening before the present careless town statistics were inaugurated.
