S. A., as a private in the Sixth Virginia Cavalry, and rose through the grades of sergeant, lieutenant, and captain, to that of major, commanding the regiment at the close of the war. He was a gallant soldier, and as a relative writes, "was in thirty four hard-fought battles and many skirmishes", and frequently received honorable notice in the official reports. He married (1), March 13, 1839, mary Barnes, daughter of Col. Charles Pendleton Tutt, of "Locust Hill", Loudoun County, and Ann Mason Chichester his wife; and (2), Mary Crittenden.

HUGH WILLIAM THROCKMORTON, of Washington, D.C., born July 12, 1836, married Rebecca Ellen, daughter of Charles Horace Upton (Consul to Geneva 1863-'77). Issue: 123, Horace Upton born February 4, 1859; 124, Nellie McCarty, born April 13, 1860, died February 3, 1873; 125, Earnest Upton, born November 11, 1861, married Mary Whelpley; 126, Cecelia Rebecca; 127, Frances Estelle. The use of the word "tradition", in regard to the marriages of Mrs. Barbour and Mrs. Moore (in the July QUARTERLY) was not intended to imply that they were not certainly Throckmortons (which beyond a doubt they were); while there appears to be no written Page 242. record of their marriages remaining, the uniform tradition among their descendants is that they were sisters, and aunts of Mrs. William Madison. Probably they were twice married. There is recorded in Culpeper a deed, dated 1771, from Robert Throgmorton and Lucy, his wife, and James Barbour and Frances, his wife. Since the last instalment of this account was prepared, there has been found in an old volume in the State land office, an entry recording that Gabriel Throckmorton appeared before Frederick County Court in 1780, and proved his service in the French and Indian War, and in the same year a warrant was issued to him by State for "military service performed as a captain in the late war between Great Britain and France"", and similar (or duplicate) warrants for his services in the same war as a subaltern in Byrd's regiment, and a captain in Peachey's. He was probably the same as, 8, Gabriel Throckmorton, born August 15, 1735. The arms on the emblazoning noticed in the last number are as follows: Quarterly of siven: 1, Gules, a chevron arg. three bars gemelles sable, a crescent for difference (Throckmorton); 2, Gu. a fesse crenelle or (Aberbury); 3, Arg. on a fess crenelle between six crosslets fitchee gu. three crescents of the field (Olney); 4, Sa. a chevron arg. between three crescents or (De la Spine); 5,Arg. on a fesse crenelle between six crosslets pottee fitchee gu. three plates (Olney); 6, Gu. three bird bolts arg. (Bosan); 7, Gu. a fesse or between six Gotee d'or (Wyke). Crest: A falcon rising arg. belled or, charged on the breast with a crescent, for difference. Motto: "Virtus Sola Nobilitat". The only variation between these arms and those given in the Visitation of Huntingdonshire, is in the first quartering - the crescent for difference, second son.
