February 2, 1828. He is the son of Lawrence Lockwood and Jane Wortendyke,
and on his father's side is of English descent. His mother is a member
of the well known Wortendyke family who came to this country at an
early colonial period. Mr. Lockwood was educated in the public schools of Bergen County, and at the age of sixteen began to learn the carpenter's trade in New York City, where he remained six years. He then reproved to Yonkers, N. Y., but about five years later returned to New York City, and a few years afterward came to Bergen County and engaged in farming, in which he has since continued. He enlisted as a private in the Twenty-second New York Volunteers in the War of the Rebellion and became a non-commissioned officer. For one term he was a member of the Township Committee of Hillsdale Township, where he resides. He is an active and influential citizen, and highly esteemed by all who know him. Mr. Lockwood married Elizabeth Holdrum, a member of an old and re- spected Bergen County family. They have had four children, of whom three are living, namely: Cornelius, William, and Margarette.
