Lockey Langhorne was the daughter of John Langhorne and Mary Beverley and granddaughter of Maj. Robert Beverley of Jamestowne.

Born about 1723 in Warwick County, Virginia (would later become Denbigh and then Newport News) she was the sister of Maj. William Langhorne who married Elizabeth Cary Scarsbrook, a cousin of both George Washington and Thomas Nelson, and daughter of the wealthy Yorktown merchant Col. Henry Scarsbrook. Henry Scarsbrook was the great-grandson of Capt. Nicholas Martiau, the man whose plantation was later turned into Yorktown.

Lockey (named after Judith Lockey, the wife of Capt. Henry Cary and mother of Anne Cary) was successfully courted by Thomas Tabb. Lockey's considerable dowry helped to establish the Tabb family as members of the Tidewater elite.
