Hi,
Could this possibly him, found on family search.
Abraham Lockyer christening 25/12/1834, Clutton Somerset, Father - Samuel Lockyer, Mother Anne.

Abraham had ason Obadiah Lockyer 1695 my Family Line down

I too am descended from the LOCKYER family of Clutton. I discovered there seemed to be a tendancy for some of them to join the army, so it's possible the missing Abraham can be found there? Worth a try.

In case someone has these in their line as the families in surrounding Villages intermarried.
Ann Lockyer married Benjamin Grant 23rd Oct.1783 Catcott.
Mary Lockyer married William Grant 7th Aug.1789 Catcott.

Grant family is my line so have not researched Lockyer family.
