Locke Genealogy & History
Locke is a French-Scottish name with three derivations based on Old English loc/lok. First is an occupational name for a locksmith, second a locational name for someone living near a river-lock (or who operated it), and third a nickname for someone with curly locks of hair. Locke genealogy is complicated by many spelling variations (Deloach, DeLocke, Deloges, Desloges, Duloches, Loach, Loch, Lochlair, Loget, Louche) throughout France and Scotland, where they had held feudal manors in Burgundy and Peeblesshire. The family motto is assiduitate, non desidia (by diligence, not by sloth). Renowned in Locke family history is 17th-century English philosopher John Locke, who influenced the American Declaration of Independence.
