A royal gateway ancestor.

From Wikitree entry (see below): “John Throckmorton, Sr, son of Bassingbourne and Mary Hill Throckmorton, of City of Norwich, Norfolk County, England brought this branch of the Throckmortons from England to North America.“ So he is a Gateway Ancestor to Royalty and Nobility.
