About Sir Thomas Carrington, {Fictional}
This person is fictional, and part of a major genealogical hoax.
The Smyth-Carrington line is, according to J. Horace Round, a fiction. The line has been based on a work by Dr. Walter Arthur Copinger -- History and Records of the Smith-Carington Family, from 1901, which is itself full of misreadings, inaccuracies, and sheer inventions, and is furthermore based on an earlier work, The Pedigree and Exploits in Foreign Countries of John Carrington, Armiger, which, though supposedly written in 1446, was itself not only a fabrication, but a forgery, written in the 17th century. See Round, J. Horace, Peerage and Pedigree: Studies in Peerage, Law and Family History, first published in 1910, and republished in Baltimore by the Genealogical Publishing Company in 1970 -- chapter 2 is the relevant one here, The Great Carington Imposture.
