"Nearly a century ago, in 1889, two misguided compilers, Frederic A. Holden and E. Dunbar Lockwood produced "Descendants of Robert Lockwood, Colonial and Revolutionary History of the Lockwood Family in America." Modern genealogists realize that nineteenth century family histories often contain errors, and this genealogy is among the most confused; but it continues to be used as a reliable source. In his "History and Genealogy of the Families of Old Fairfield," Donald Lines Jacobus put in order the early Lockwoods of that town. In 1978 this compiler undertook a similar task for Stamford Lockwoods with "Some Descendants of Edmund Lockwood (1594-1635) of Cambridge, Massachusetts and his son Edmund Lockwood (c.1625-1693) of Stamford." There remain the Lockwood founders of Norwalk and Greenwich with lines to be set straight...
ROBERT1 LOCKWOOD, son of Edmund and Ales (Cowper) Lockwood of England, bp. Combs, co. Suffolk, 18 Jan. 1600/01; d. Fairfield, Connecticut 1658, [Banks, "The Winthrop Fleet"; Jacobus, "Families of Old Fairfield," hereinafter F.O.O.F., 1:380].

"ROBERT1 LOCKWOOD, baptized Combs, co. Suffolk, England 18 January 1600, died Fairfield CT by 11 September 1658, son of EdmundA and AliceA or RuthA (Cooper) Lockwood; married Watertown MA about 1633 (birth 1634) SUSANNA2 NORMAN, born England say 1615, died Greenwich CT 23 December 1660, daughter of Capt. RICHARD1 and (___1) NORMAN, married (2) Greenwich about 1659 (between 11 September 1658 and 23 December 1660) as his second wife Jeffrey1 Ferris, born England say 1614, died Stamford CT 1666, married (1) Watertown before 1634 Mary (___), married (3) Stamford about 1663 (birth 1664) Judith Feake (see Norman Chapter) (Torrey 470 and 263).
Robert1 came in the Winthrop Fleet in 1630 on the "Mary and John", and settled that year in Watertown, made freeman 9 March 1637, and removed to Fairfield in 1646, where he had owned land as early as 1641. On 20 May 1652, he was made freeman of the Connecticut Colony, and May 1657 the Connecticut Court confirmed him and Nehemiah Olmstead to be sergeants of the Fairfield Train Band under Capt. Nathaniel Seeley. He was executor of the estate of Edmund Lockwood, supposedly a brother, in 1635.
