Near the Thornton cemetery in Kenmore is a road sign erected by
the Virginia conservation Commission which reads: "Fall Hill"
on the heights one mile to the west, the home of the Thornton's
from about 1736.
Francis Thornton III was a Justice, a Burgess 1744-45 and Col.of
Militia for Spotsylvania Co.
He and his two brothers three GREGORY sisters, first cousins of
George Washington. Fall Hill is still owned (1960) and occupied
by direct Thornton descendants. (Mrs. Lynn W. Franklin, Sr,
still lives there as of 1997).
The Thornton family was destitute after the War Between the
States, and the legend of an old Barbary pirate burying gold on
the property was revived. There are many holes between oak
trees at Fall Hill today, but the gold has never been found.
His Will was written 11 Nov 1748, proved 5 Sep 1749,
Spotsylvania Co. VA and bequeathed to his son William all lands
at the Great Mountains in Orange County being about 2,600 acres.
