  1. 1.  Joseph Lockwood was born on 15 May 1699 in Stamford, Fairfield County, Connecticut; died on 15 Jun 1757 in Pound Ridge, Westchester County, New York.

    Notes:

    Joseph Lockwood is said to have moved from Stamford to Pound Ridge around 1743. Stamford deeds support his departure at about this time, indicating that he first relocated to North Castle, where his brothers Reuben and James were also residing.

  2. Records from Historical Records of North Castle (R) include:
    • Book B:8 – Town Meeting, April 3, 1744 - “Joseph Lockwood, prizer of damages and fence viewer for the East Patent for the year ensuing.”
    • Book B:10 – Town Meeting, April 1, 1746 - “Joseph Lockwood, assessor for the year ensuing for the East Middle Patent.”

    (Joseph’s brother Reuben appears in these records beginning in 1739.)

  3. From Westchester County Land Records:
    • H:62 – December 10, 1745 (recorded August 24, 1768)
      Joseph and Reuben Lockwood, both of North Castle, along with others, transferred rights in the “East Patent”—originally granted in 1701 to Caleb Heathcote, Lemaster Simbs, and Robert Waters—to James De Lancey and Lewis Johnstone.
      Joseph Lockwood signed by mark; Reuben signed his name.

  4. No formal death record has been found for Joseph⁴ Lockwood other than that noted in the journal of his grandson, Ezra. However, on February 15, 1760, at a church society meeting—moderated by Reuben Lockwood, with Israel Lockwood (both brothers of Joseph) serving on the building committee—it was decided to erect a new meeting house on the “hill betwixt Joseph Lockwood’s house and Ebenezer Lockwood’s barn.” These two Lockwoods were almost certainly Joseph’s sons, indicating that Joseph’s land had passed to them by that date (N-2:570).

  5. The surviving children of Joseph Lockwood are identified in Stamford deed L:101, dated March 28, 1788. In this deed:
    • Ebenezer Lockwood of Pound Ridge
    • Ebenezer and Rachel Wood of Salem, New York
    • David and Mercy Dan of Bedford, New York
    • Nathaniel and Elizabeth Waring of the Manor of Philipsborough, New York
      -acted as grantors to Joseph Lockwood of Pound Ridge. The deed references land originally purchased by “our father Joseph Lockwood” in 1756.

    6. Joseph married Sarah Hoyt about 1728 in Stamford, Fairfield County, Connecticut. Sarah (daughter of Joshua Hoyt and Mary Pickett) was born on 1 Apr 1706 in Stamford, Fairfield County, Connecticut; died in 1790 in Stamford, Fairfield County, Connecticut. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Notes:

    Ezra⁶ Lockwood (Ebenezer⁵, Joseph⁴, Joseph³) wrote his journal in the late 1840s and early 1850s, but his account of his immigrant ancestry was somewhat hazy and erroneous.

On July 26, 1765, Joseph Lockwood of Old Pound Ridge, New York, conveyed to Jonathan Scofield, 3rd, of Stamford, Connecticut, “16-0-0 in said property, part of the right of Edmund and John Lockwood which descended to my grandfather Joseph Lockwood” (Stamford Deeds G:404).
