Cheri, my grandfather was Allen Tolbert Lokey, born in Tippah, Mississippi. My mom always said that they were Irish. His father was James Pendleton Lokey. I ran across a little info on them via a name search, and got the Carpenter family, which was my g-grandmother's name (I hadn't known that, but later found it in family papers). If you want any of these names let me know. All are James Pendleton's kids except his sister Amanda Melvinia (Mellie) Lokey who married a Carpenter, too.
