“James Booker and Ann Throckmorton was married 11th of January 1814” [Booker-Garnett-Lyell family Bible at the Virginia State Archives, Acc. 24585.]

In 1818, John Henshaw junior assignee of John Henshaw complained unto the superior court of chancery for the Fredericksburg disctrict, that John Edmondson had been in his lifetime indebted to John Hewshaw. John Edmondson died in 1789 intestate leaving an only daughter Susannah who had married Lawrence Lewis, and that Susannah, of legal age, died in 1790 without child, mother or siblings, leaving Susannah Wyatt, John Wyatt and Thomas Wyatt her maternal grandmother and uncles, and James Edmondson, Sarah Dix wife of Thomas Dix, Dorothy Gatewood wife of Philemon Gatewood her paternal uncle and aunts, and also descendants of Judith Throgmorton wife of Gabriel Throgmorton, who had children Albion, Gabriel, William, James, Dorothy who intermarried with James Webb, Martha who intermarried with Anthony Haynes, Sally who intermarried with William Smith, Lucy who intermarried with Anthony Brooking and Judith who intermarried with Edmund E. Brooking. James Edmondson died in 1790 leaving no children and a widow who died in 179-. Albion Throgmorton died intestate leaving James, Edward, Sophia, Robert, Lucy and Dorothy, that James died without child, that William died leaving an only child Anna who intermarried with James Booker. Sarah Dix and Dorothy Gatewood were sisters of the half blood to John Edmondson, that Dorothy died in 1811 leaving Thomas, Richard and Fielding Gatewood. John Henshaw seeks compensation. His bill was answered in 1820 by James Webb and Dorothy his wife, Edmund Cauthorn and Martha Todd his wife, Anthony Hayes and Fanny his wife, and William Smith and Sally his wife. John Edmondson died possessed to two tracts of land in Essex County, South Farnham parish. Their answer seems to imply that Susannah might have had a brother James, but wording is unclear. The name Throgmorton is spelled Throckmorton throughout their answer. Martha Todd Cauthorn had been Martha Throckmorton, Fanny Hayes had been Fanny Throckmorton. Judith Throckmorton, who married Robert E. Brooking is now dead. Some of the land had been previously conveyed to John Turner, who died leaving a widow Cary Turner and an only son Major John Boughan Turner. Other property was conveyed to Mace Clements who has died and left a widow Eliza who married a Foster, the said Foster having died, and Mace and Eliza Clements had a daughter Mary. James Edmondson died in 1791 leaving a will proved in Essex in 1792, leaving estate to his nephews James, Gabriel and William Throckmorton and neices Dorothy, Martha, Frances, Sally, Lucy and Judith Throckmorton. James’s widow held the land until she died in 1805. [Virginia Colonial Abstracts, Volume II, ed. Beverley Fleet, Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Company, 1988, pages 439–441.]

“…the family of James Booker & Ann his wife — who was Ann Throckmorton — died in Vermillion County Ilinois …” (additional text generally unreadable) “Ann the wife of James Booker died July 12th 1849” [Booker-Garnett-Lyell family Bible at the Virginia State Archives, Acc. 24585.]
