  • Notes 
    • Thornton owned and ran a confectionary business at the time of his death. In his will he directed it be run by his brother Samuel for the benefit of his widow Bettie. Bettie was also to receive the proceeds at liquidation.

      Some researchers have attributed Confederate service to Thornton, but no documentary evidence has been found.
