He was very much interested in the history of the family, and wrote many articles on subject for historical publications. He spent quite a good deal of time and money in looking into the records of the family in England, and into the military records of those who fought in the American Revolution and other wars. In 1926 he erected a monument at Naylors Hole to the first pioneer settler in that vicinity, Col. Moore Fauntleroy. He also erected a monument on the battlefield of Monmouth, N.J. in memory of Capt. Henry Fauntleroy, who was killed there during the revolution; and one on the battlefield at Guilford Courthouse in memory of Major Griffin Fauntleroy, who lost his life there in the same conflict. Some of his articles may be found in the Virginia Magazine of History and Biography."
