War of the roses
The Virginia "Cavaliers" were English nobility who received large land grants in eastern Virginia from the King of England.
In England, members of the Royal Family hold the following ranks, in order of precedence (male/female): King/Queen; Prince/Princess (the heir to the Throne is the Crown Prince, who is also the Prince of Wales). Ranks of nobility are (in order of precedence): Duke/Duchess; Marquess/Marchioness; Earl/Countess; Viscount/ Viscountess; Baron/Baroness. Beneath them you have baronets and knights, but these are not of the nobility. They are commoners.
The reason the founding fathers prohibited the title of nobility is a replusion for the English monarchy. Remember, they had just successfully became independent from England and King George was not exactly a celebrity.
Not all members of the nobility were trained to do combat, though many were. A well known historical person who was a member of the nobility and decided not to be a knight was Peter Abelard.
