Sir George Throckmorton (c. 1480 – 6 August 1552) of Coughton Court in Warwickshire, England, was a Member of Parliament during the reign of King Henry VIII.




Origins



Born before 1489 in Worcestershire, he was the eldest son and heir of Sir Robert Throckmorton of Coughton Court, a soldier, courtier and Councillor to King Henry VII, by his wife Catherine Marrow, a daughter of Sir William Marowe (or Marrow), Lord Mayor of London. The Throckmorton family (originally de Throckmorton) took its surname from the manor of Throckmorton in the parish of Fladbury, Worcestershire, which from the 12th century they held under the overlordship of the Bishop of Worcester. They acquired the manor of Coughton by marriage in the early 15th century.




Marriage and issue



In 1512 he married Katherine Vaux, the eldest daughter of Nicholas Vaux, 1st Baron Vaux of Harrowden by his first wife Elizabeth FitzHugh. Elizabeth FitzHugh's first husband had been William Parr, 1st Baron Parr of Kendal, and thus Katherine's maternal half-brother was Sir Thomas Parr, the father of Queen Catherine Parr. By his wife he had eight sons and nine daughters as follows:
