     Placing him as the son of this Joshua William Thornton is somewhat tentative. He was definitely a son of a William, but there were several Williams that were living at the time of his birth. The other Williams were eliminated as having other known children, including sons named William who have also been traced and have been identified as living in either Guilford or on Chincoteague Island. This places him in the seaside or Assawoman Creek branch of the Thornton family, which fits with him living on the seaside and being buried at Modest Town. William was born circa 1813 at Accomack Co, VA. His tombstone shows he was born 3 Jan 1806. However, the 1850 census puts his birth at 1813, the 1860 census puts it at 1811, the 1870 census puts it at 1807, the 1880 census puts it at 1807, his death in 1886 as reported by wife Sally puts it at 1806, and his death reported in 1887 by his son Wm. T., puts it at 1817..² He was the son of Joshua William Thornton (III). William chose a guardian on on 31 December 1832 at Accomack Co, VA. It was on this date that Wm. Thornton, orphan of Wm.

This is not too far from Modest Town, where Wm. T. Thornton is buried..³ He married Eliza 'Elzay or Alsey' Belote on 31 December 1832 at Accomack Co, VA. According to Turman's marriage book William Nock & Valentine Trader were the securities on the M.L.B. of William Thornton, ward of William Nock, and Elzay Belote, ward of William Nock. Mary Frances Carey reports they were married by David Watts.

     The assumption that this Ezekiel Kilmon (Jr) is the son of Ezekiel Kilmon and Polly Parks is based on these (weak) facts: 1) Exekiel (Sr) had a son, aged 0-10 in 1820; 2) his surviving wife Polly had only one son living with her in 1830, aged 15-20; 3) Ezekiel (Jr) first appears as a head of household in 1840, aged 20-30; and 4) he could have been named after his father.
