  • Notes 
    • Son of Richard Napoleon Lee, who adopted the surname Thornton in 1865 by a special Royal Grant in compliance with a condition in the will of Richard Thornton. See London Gszette, 4.8.1865.
      An amateur cricketer, Richard Thornton Thornton made his debut in first class cricket in 1881, aged 28, and played in a total of 66 matches, 45 of them for Kent. Previously he had played for Dorset (1872), Devon (1873-77) and Wiltshire (1875). He toured North America in 1885. In Holy Orders he was at one time curate of Sidmouth, Devon, and in 1892 he was appointed acting chaplain to the Royal West Kent Regiment, and was at that time living at Tunbridge Wells.
