Throckmorton
The focal ancestor for this wiki's Throckmorton line is Daniel Throckmorton, born in 1800 in Ohio.
Daniel Throckmorton was descended from immigrant John Throckmorton who came to Massachusetts Colony c.1636. John Throckmorton was descended from an English aristocratic family whose origins can be traced back to pre-Norman times.
