Hi
Happy New Year.
Could this be Mary Ann Jones in 1851.
As Mary Ann Lockwood birth place indicated as Stalybridge Lancs/Cheshire, this is how I based search.
I have not yet discovered how to Paste so bear with the slight change to normal view of census.

Hi again
John Hallett looks quite tricky, as I have found 2 living in Oldham in 1891 and 1 in 1881

1881 & 91
Is John Hallett b. circa 1834 Stalybridge
married to Elizabeth b.circa 1832
they had a son Joshua living with them in 1881

1891 John Hallet b.c 1829 Saddleworth Yorks
is living with a Mary A Ross as a boarder, Mary was 42 at this time, both were widowed.

Does family folklore give any indication re John, as if it is one of these men, they would be older fathers.
It is also cnfusing with this new possible Mary Ann, but you say there is evidence of the Lockwood name historically.
