Ephraim LOCKWOOD was granted 1000 acres of land on Grave Creek, Ohio County, Virginia in 1787. Deed Bk.1,p.414; Sim's INDEX to LAND GRANTS in WEST VIRGINIA.
(Note: According to one source, It seems that this land around Grave Creek in Ohio County, Virginia which was sold and granted to various settlers from Connecticut and elsewhere was later claimed by George WASHINGTON. WASHINGTON was a surveyor and land dealer as well as a famous general and first President; and also, it seems, somewhat of a swindler when it came to land deals following the Revolution. George WASHINGTON used his influence, and, of course, some of the settlers around Graves Creek were forced to move across the river into Ohio.)
