His father died when he was still a child and he was left £500 and a half share in the salt monopoly. His mother died in 1587 and left him jewellery and household goods - despite using her name frequently, he was passed over under male-line primogeniture by a grant of the manors of Beddington and Coulsdon, Surrey by Elizabeth in 1589 to kinsman Sir Edward Darcy. Throckmorton was in Italy by 1588 and received education in Padua in 1590. In 1601, he was elected Member of Parliament for Lyme Regis.

He was appointed Chamberlain of the Exchequer in 1613, serving until his death. In 1621 he was elected MP for Surrey. Throckmorton or Carew died in February 1644, and was buried in Beddington church. Throckmorton married firstly by 1599, Mary More, daughter of Sir George More of Loseley Park, Surrey, and had five sons and three daughters. He wrote to More for financial assistance in 1604, "which if I cannot have I must leave my country, and my wife and children to the parish." He married secondly by 1618, Susan Butler, née Bright, of  Bury St. Edmunds, Suffolk,  widow of Henry Butler merchant of London and had a son and daughter.
