Richard Burke left Canada at an early age. Two of his daughters, Helen Vernon and Laura Lynch, referred to him as the black sheep of the Burke family. He was a travelling salesman of women's ready to wear clothing. Home for him and his family was Emporia, Kansas then Oskaloosa, Iowa. He was a well dressed, handsome man, but he became a severe alcoholic who became abusive and out of control when he was drunk. Eventually, his drinking and resulting behavior became so bad that his wife, Winifred, divorced him which was considered to be a drastic step in those days. He never remarried and never took another drink of alcohol the rest of his life. but he never got his family back. During his years in Des Moines, Iowa, after his divorce, he was the three cushion billiard champion of the State of Iowa. When the great world champion, Willie Hoppe, would come to Iowa on tour, he would always play Richard Burke in an exhibition match. One of his sons-in-law, Don Vernon, witnessed one of these matches at the Mission Billiard Parlor in Des Moines, Iowa. | Burke, Richard Joseph Jr. (I98)

The Origin of the Hornblower family
The Hornblower surname probably began as an occupational name. According to one story, a Walter de la Grene living in England in 1320 was paid one penny per week for blowing the horn. Versions of the surname do appear in records dating back to the 1300s. including Blauhorn, Blawhorn, Horniblow, Hornblow, Hornisblow, Hornesblow, and Horneblow. The British National Archives contain deeds and papers of Hornblower family members living in Kidderminster, Worcestershire, dating as far back as the 17th century.
Another Hornblower family tradition explains that Charles II of England (1630-1685) was captivated by the strains played by a bugler in his service. He therefore exclaimed that from that time forward the bugler, whose name was Green, should be the king?s ?horn blower.? As a reward for his service the king gave the bugler?s family an estate of Crown land at Kidderminster, near Stourbridge. Supposedly the Hornblower family crest with three bugle horns can be seen in the Tower of London.
Apart from the great family of mining engineers who settled in Cornwall and in colonial America in the mid-eighteenth century, the best-known members of the Hornblower family are fictional. Fans of J. R. R. Tolkien recall that he tells of an important Hobbit family whose most famous member was Tobold Hornblower of Longbottom. Tobold introduced pipe-weed into the Shire. (Pipe-weed, probably a variety of Nicotiana, or tobacco plant.) Frodo Baggins had Hornblower blood. His great-grandfather Largo married one Tanta Hornblower.
The second and probably most famous character with the surname is the British Royal Navy officer, Horatio Hornblower. The original character was created by C. S. Forester, (1899-1967) who wrote eleven novels and several short stories about the adventures of his hero, who lived during the era of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars. In a 1951 movie Gregory Peck starred as Captain Horatio Hornblower. More recently, a series of movies for television based on Forester?s character retold the history of the naval hero.
Before dismissing the fictional Hornblower, take a look at his pedigree chart. Yes, we can claim him as one of our cousins. C. Northcote Parkinson (best known for Parkinson?s Law) was so taken with the character of Horatio that he wrote a biography, ?The Life and Times of Horatio Hornblower.? In creating a family tree for his hero, Parkinson placed him in the same Hornblower family as Jonathan and Ann Carter Hornblower.
Parkinson?s family tree shows the naval hero descended from Jonathan Hornblower, engineer, 1717-1780, through a fictional son named Jacob. The pedigree includes three ancestors who are found on the real Hornblower family pedigree. So when people jokingly ask whether you are related to Horatio, you can answer ?yes.? Incidentally, on our family tree we do have an actual Horatio Hornblower, born in 1798 to Joseph Hornblower, 1755.

Thomas Vernon, Sr was disowned by the Quaker Meeting at Chester County, Pennsylvania in 1709 or 1710. Moved in about 1737 or 1738 with his wife and children to Virginia. Eventually settled at Cub Creek, Virginia (It was called Old Brunswick County, then Lunenberg County shortly after they arrived. At some much later date it was named Charlotte Co. Vernon Vignettes, Vol. I, #5, page 27, says that he was granted land in Lunenberg Co., Va., in 1737. Thomas Vernon, Sr. and his family were associated with the Caldwell Settlement in Virginia, a group of Presbyterians. Lunenberg County Tax Records for 1749, page 277, lists a Thomas Vernon. The Thomas Vernon, Sr. of this genealogy would have been about 53 years old at the time. Although his date of death is listed as about 1758, another source lists 1777.
The life of Thomas Vernon, Sr. became so connected to Reverend John Caldwell and the Caldwell Settlement that I shall try to set out a chronology below that gives some information about the life of Thomas Vernon, Sr., John Caldwell and his followers, the Caldwell Settlement, and how they fit together.
1686 - Thomas Vernon, Sr. was born to Robert and Elinor Vernon, Quakers who had emigrated from Chester, England with William Penn to escape religious persecution . He was born in Chester County, Pennsylvania at his parents farm which was crossed by a creek known as Vernon's Run.
1710 - Thomas Vernon, Sr. was disowned (cast out) by the Chester Quaker Monthly Meeting for "... his vain and evil conversation as that of drinking to excess, loose company keeping, cursing, swearing, and lying." His father, Robert Vernon, gave a large tract of land to his son, Jacob, in 1703, and another large tract of land to his son, John, in 1709/1710. There is no record of Robert giving anything to his son, Thomas, perhaps indicating that Thomas was not in good standing with his father, maybe for many years.
1712 - Records show that Thomas Vernon, Sr. attended the wedding of his brother, Jacob, to Elinor Owen in Pennsylvania.
1727 - In December Reverend John Caldwell, a Presbyterian Minister, and some of his followers from Antrim, Northern Ireland arrived in Delaware. "From thence they got up the country to a place in Pennsylvania called Chestnut Level." During his years in Pennsylvania, John Caldwell explored south to Albemarle County, Virginia and Old Brunswick County, Virginia.
1738 - Reverend John Caldwell met with the Presbyterian Synod of Philadelphia to seek permission to settle in Virginia. The Synod applied to Governor Gooch of Virginia and received permission from Richmond, the capitol of Virginia, on Nov. 4, 1738. Reverend John Caldwell and his followers purchased 20,000 acres along both sides of Cub Creek, which was then in Old Brunswick County, Virginia.
1739 - Reverend John Caldwell left the Chestnut Level Presbyterian Settlement in Pennsylvania in the spring of 1739 with several families and built a house in Albemarle Co., Virginia some 75 miles north of Cub Creek and the Little Roanoke River in Old Brunswick Co., Virginia. He did travel from time to time down to the new outpost settlement at Cub Creek, and his first son was born there on one of those trips.
1739 - Thomas Vernon, Sr. appears in the Cub Creek Settlement Records in 1739, he was about age 53 at the time. To support the conclusion that The Thomas Vernon at Cub Creek was the same Thomas Vernon that had lived in Chester County, Pennsylvania, it must be noted that he named his children with the same names that his brothers, sons of Robert and Elinor, the Pennsylvania Quakers, had named their children. It is logical to conclude that Thomas Vernon, Sr, outcast from the Chester, Pennsylvania Quaker Meeting, and probably disowned by his father, Robert Vernon, took up with the Presbyterians of Chestnut Level, Pennsylvania and moved his family south with them to Cub Creek, Virginia. Chestnut Level is in the next county and only about forty three miles from Nether Providence, or Vernon's Run, the location of where Thomas Vernon, Sr. was born and where his father and brothers lived. Thomas Vernon's family is listed as one of 17 founding families of Cub Creek.
1741 - Reverend John Caldwell moved his family to Cub Creek sometime after March 1st. Other Presbyterian settlers arrived from Pennsylvania and Northern Ireland and joined the Caldwell Settlement at Cub Creek, Virginia.
1745 - Thomas Vernon, Sr. took up 501 acres from the Kennon deed at Cub Creek in the Caldwell Settlement. Lunenburg County was cut out of Old Brunswick County in 1745. The Cub Creek Caldwell Settlement then became part of Lunenburg County.
1749 - The June Court gave a list of tithables for Lunenburg County. Part of the list was made up by one of the Caldwells for the area at Falling River to the Little Roanoke River. Included on that list was Thomas Vernon, Sr. and his three sons, Isaac, James, and Thomas, Jr.
1752 - Another list of tithables was made and contained the same names as for 1749.
1757 - Thomas Vernon, Sr. and his wife, Mary, went to live with their son, Isaac, and his wife, Elizabeth Austin. Thomas Vernon, Sr. was about 71 at the time. Thomas vernon, Sr. deeded their homestead and 370 acres of land to Isaac. In 1757 The will of James Caldwell left one English Shilling to Thomas Vernon, Sr.
1758 - 1777 - It is believed that Thomas Vernon, Sr. may have died in about 1758 at Cub Creek, but another report sets his death in 1777. If he lived until 1777, he would have been about 91 years old.
