sons, George D. Lockwood (1830-1874) and John S. Lockwood (born 1834), continued the firm. In 1856 George moved to Davenport,
Iowa and opened another store, Livingston and Lockwood. During the American Civil War he was an officer in Companies D and
I of the 7th Ohio Volunteer Infantry Regiment. His brother, Stanley B. Lockwood (1840-1884), served in Company G. of the 2nd
Ohio Volunteer Cavalry Regiment and in Company K of the 105th Ohio Volunteer Infantry Regiment. The collection consists
of correspondence, military records, financial records, diaries, and newspaper clippings. A major topic of the correspondence
is the American Civil War.
