Christopher2 Luttrell (Robert1)1
was born circa 1400 in Luttrellstown, Dublin, Ireland, and died April 1455 in
Luttrellstown, Dublin, Ireland2. He married Catherine Rochfort3,4
circa 1420 in Luttrellstown,
There
is some confusion here as to who succeeded Christopher after his death in
1454-1455. Was it Richard or Thomas?
In
"History of West Virginia and
It’s People," it states that Christopher was succeeded by his son
Richard who married Margaret FitzLyons, daughter of Patrick FitzLeons. (1)
However,
in "A History of the County
Dublin" it claims that his son, Thomas, succeeded him. It also states that Thomas was only 19 at the
time of his father's death in 1454 which would make his date of birth around
1435 and that he was already married to Ellen, daughter of Philip Bellew. At the age of 51, he is still alive with
another comment, "In 1486 we find him filling the office of sheriff of his
native county...." so we know he didn't pass away at least until after then.
(2)
It
also further states that in 1527 Thomas (who married in 1506) appeared as a
plaintiff in a suit in the Common Pleas in connection with the property
inherited from Sir Elias de Ashbourne. (2)
[This is no doubt the property that Robert Luttrell inherited through
his wife, Ann Courtenay de Ashbourne, daughter of Sir Elias de Ashbourne].
"A History of the
I
then looked to the other possibility of Christopher Luttrell being succeeded by
his son Richard who had married Margaret FitzLyons, daughter of Patrick
Fitz-Leons, Esq., and they had a son, Sir Thomas who became the chief justice
of
To
do any confirmation at all, requires some dates of reference of which the
"History of West Virginia and
It’s People" offers none.
So I then turned to the other document, A History of the County Dublin for dates to work with. Working with the dates of 1454 (Christopher's
death) and 1506 (Thomas' marriage) you have a difference of 52 years. If Thomas was only 10 years old (remember he
was a youth) at the time of his marriage, then he could have been born in 1494
- this narrows the time range to 40 years.
As has been seen in the past, many men have married more than once or
married a younger wife and had several children well into their aged
years. So this hypothesis is not
unreasonable either.
With
this lack of information, I had to conclude that either could be true and
therefore chose the path that most others had chosen, the Christopher to Thomas,
to Richard, to Thomas.

Thomas3 Luttrell (Christopher2, Robert1)
was born circa 1435 in Luttrellstown,
Robert
was succeeded by his son Christopher Luttrell, who died in 1454, and the latter
by his son Thomas Luttrell, who was stated at the time of his father's death,
although only nineteen years of age, to be married to Ellen, daughter of Philip
Bellew. In 1486 we find him filling the office of sheriff of his native county,
and a reference to the rejoicings on the occasion of the marriage of a daughter
of the house of Luttrellstown (when more than forty archers attended to support
the bridegroom, and many citizens came from Dublin), shows the esteem in which
the family was held by the other inhabitants of the English Pale.
The
bridegroom was one Nicholas Travers, than whom amongst all the multitude at
that wedding we are told, there was not a taller or better bowman, and it is
probable from this alliance between the house of Travers and of Luttrell that
Sir John Travers of Monkstown, who is frequently mentioned in connection with
their affairs, was a near relative of the Luttrells.
Thomas
Luttrell was succeeded at Luttrellstown by his son Richard Luttrell, who
married Margaret, daughter of Patrick FitzLyon; and the latter in his turn by
his son Thomas, who adopted the profession of the law and was one of the most
distinguished members of the family.

For
a quarter of a century after Thomas Plunkett's death in 1519, Dunsoghly castle
was occupied by his son, Christopher. As he was old enough when his father
bought Much Cabragh to understand the effect of the purchase, he must have been
at least 50 years of age when he succeeded to the castle, and he had been long
married, and had children of mature years. His wife was a daughter of his
father's colleague, Philip Bermingham, chief justice of the king's bench, and
by her he had three sons, the eldest of whom, maintaining the legal tradition
of his family, adopted the Bar as his profession.
Before
1547 Dunsoghly castle had passed to Sir John Plunkett, chief justice of the
queen's bench, as Christopher Plunkett's eldest son became in the reign of
Queen Elizabeth, and was his chief residence until his death. In the last
decade of Henry the Eighth's reign there is an indication that John Plunkett
was well known to those in high places, and not long after his succession to
Dunsoghly he appears at the right hand of Edward the Sixth's lord deputy, Sir
Edward Bellingham. His post was hardly one that an embryo judge would now fill,
and his chief duties seem to have been the provisioning and furnishing of the
houses occupied by the lord deputy and his retinue.
While
the lord deputy was in the country he writes as an expert on the quality of
beer to him, and in the same letter he promises to use his best efforts to
procure for the lord deputy's retinue beds of the first quality in place of
some which had been rejected on the ground that they were unfit for the lord
deputy's servants, much less for his gentlemen.
But
during the reign of Queen Mary, John Plunkett is mentioned frequently as acting
on commissions of a legal character, and in 1556 he appears as a member of the
Irish privy council. In the latter position he was continued on the accession
of Queen Elizabeth, and before she had been 12 months on the throne he was
raised to the chief seat on the common law bench.
Although
it is not uncommon to find leading men in the Pale adapting themselves to the
revolutions in Church and State which the 16th century witnessed, yet Sir John
Plunkett is an exceptionally striking example.
In
the reign of Edward the Sixth he was one of the few Irish officials privileged
to approach the Lord Protector, and was entrusted with the duty of providing
for the spiritual care of his own parish; and in the reign of Queen Elizabeth
he was prominent in the government of his country, and enjoyed the close
friendship of her chancellor, Archbishop Loftus, the chief ecclesiastic of the
Established Church, who refers to him after his death as "the good Sir
John Plunkett."
But
notwithstanding these indications of his attachment to the reformed faith, he
was not only appointed by Queen Mary a member of her Irish council, hut was
also admitted to her presence and given by her a grant of lands on more
favourable terms than had been originally proposed.
In
regard to the affairs of State as well as of the Church he saw eye to eye with
the English government. In the winter of 1562 he was one of the three members
of the Irish council sent to discuss with Queen Elizabeth the state of
Of
his discharge of his judicial duties no knowledge is available, but the
assistance which he gave in the government of
At
the time of his death Sir John Plunkett had attained to a very great age. Three
years before he is said to have been so blind as to have been scarcely able to
see his food, and for some months before his death he was known to be dying.
His later years were clouded by attacks made upon him by a step-son. He had
been married three times: first to Catherine Luttrell ; secondly to Elizabeth
Preston; and thirdly to Genet Sarsfield.
Genet
Sarsfield, who is said to have been married five times, was, at the time of her
marriage to Sir John Plunkett, the widow of Sir Thomas Cusack, sometime lord
chancellor of
In
regard to these he wrote thus two years before his death to Sir Francis
Walsingham.
"Truth
urged me to visit your honour with those few lines, where I am informed Edward
Cusack alleged my book concerning his proceeding contained but lies. I assure
your honour every article therein in pith and substance is most true. I look
not to live to write any untruth willingly, 'laudanti se videntur deesse
vicini,' yet in truth a man may be his own herald. I have served my sovereign,
beginning the first Michaelmas term of her Highness's reign to this present,
and God be praised, uprightly, without respect to the contrary, and now to fail
were too late."
As
he mentions in his will, Sir John Plunkett received with his last wife "no
small commodity," but although "he laid thereunto so much of his
own," he says that he was "nothing the richer." His references
to silver vessels, gilt, partly gilt, and ungilt, show that his cupboard was as
well furnished as that of his grandfather; and a chapel adjoining Dunsoghly
castle, another adjoining the church of the parish, and a chamber built over a
mineral spring in the village, testified to his large ideas and piety. The
chapel adjoining the castle lies to the south, and is an oblong building, 21
feet three inches by 12 feet three inches, the plainness of which is relieved
by the doorway and the windows. The doorway is in the north wall, and as a
tablet with the initials " I. P. M. D. G. S.1573," records, it was
the work of John Plunkett, knight, of Dunsoghly, and his wife Genet Sarsfield.
It is round-headed, with neat mouldings and a bold hood. Under the hood are a
rose and fleur-de-lis, which were possibly intended to be symbolic of the
Virgin, "the rose of Sharon and the lily of the valley," and above
the hood there is a well-cut slab showing the instruments of the Passion; those
in the centre, namely the handle of the scourge, the spear, and the hammer,
with the heart, the hands, and the feet, were probably originally of metal set
in the existing stone.
Of
an east window only the round-headed splay remains, but, owing to its having
been built up inside, a window to the west, of two lights with a thin shaft and
segmental heads, is in good preservation. Besides these windows there are two
smaller windows in the south side, and there are ambries at both ends of the
north wall.
As
in the case of the blind Lord of Howth, pride in his family and interest in the
past were prominent in Sir John Plunkett's character. In regard to the first
trait, it is related that he was very angry when a representation of his arms
was blown down in Christ Church Cathedral, and in his will he is careful to
emphasize his descent from the noble house of Killeen by large bequests to the
churches with which that house was connected; and in regard to the second
trait, it is recorded that it was from chronicles belonging to him that part of
the "Book of Howth" was compiled, and his active support was given to
the first proposal for printing the statutes of Ireland.
Of
his office he was not a little proud, as a bequest of his judicial gown
"furred with madder" shows; arid the fact that Dunsoghly was held
from the Crown by royal service, and that it fell to his lot to contribute
three archers to the muster, was to him, no doubt, a source of gratification.
As
a neighbour at Dunbro, Sir John Plunkett bad a leading gentleman of the Pale,
Mark Barnewall, a great-grandson of Sir Nicholas Barnewall and Ismay Serjeant
of Castleknock. Their son Edward married a daughter of his stepfather, Sir
Robert Bold, by a previous marriage, and is said to have been the first of his
name seated at Dunbro.
He
was succeeded there by his son Robert, who married Elizabeth Shelton, and was
the father by her of Sir John Plunkett's neighbour. Mark Barnewall resembled in
character Sir John Plunkett, being, in the words of Archbishop Loftus, " a
very godly and honest man," and married a lady who had been previously
wife of a son of Sir John Plunkett. He is mentioned first in connexion with the
military expeditions against the Scots and Shane O'Neill, in which he served
either in person or by deputy, and later on he appears on a mission to the
English court on behalf of the Earl of Clanricarde.
But
at the same time his own services were considered worthy of recognition, and he
is found in correspondence with Lord Burghley about lands in
After
Sir John Plunkett's death Dunsoghly came into the possession of Sir Christopher
Plunkett, who was his grandson. He has been described as "an eminent and
gracious lawyer," but he has left no mark in his professional capacity,
and ire is now remembered as one of the leading landowners of the Pale in the
reign of James the First.

Plunkett of Dunsoghly, who was also a lawyer and became Chief Justice of the
Queen's Bench. (1)
Of
his two brothers, Robert, who was Archdeacon of Meath, never married, but the
other, Simon, a merchant and alderman of
Of
Luttrell's early life little is known. His first marriage appears to have taken
place in 1506, when he can have been little more than a youth, and in 1527 he
appears as plaintiff in a suit in the Common Pleas in connection with the
property inherited from Sir Elias de Ashbourne. (1)
In
1532 his talents first received recognition from the Crown in his appointment
as Solicitor-General and King's Serjeant in
He
was an active member of the Council, in which capacity we find him accompanying
Lord Deputy Grey on his expedition to meet Tirlagh O"Poole, and on another
occasion taking charge of Dublin in the Lord Deputy's absence; and it has been
stated that he was instrumental in securing the preservation of the public
records in a place of safety. (1)
When
the Commission presided over by Sir Anthony St. Leger was sent to
Some
letters from Chief Justice Luttrell written about this time are still extant;
in one of these he refers to the capture of his relative Aylmer of Lyons, by
the O'Tooles, and says that a ransom will have to be paid for his release; and
in another he mentions the recent "ruffling time" with O'Neill, and
says that rents will be slowly paid, as the farmers, whose services saved the
Pale from utter destruction, are all lying out in camps. (1)
In
the latter letter the Chief Justice also mentions the dissolution of the
religious houses, by which he profited. St. Mary's Abbey had owned from the
time of its foundation the lands of Coolmine, in Clonsilla parish, and in
addition had obtained in the fifteenth century lands in that parish which had
belonged to the Priory of Little Malvern in
Of
the latter lands Chief Justice Luttrell was tenant at the time of the
dissolution, and doubtless then became owner. In addition he received grants of
other monastic property, including some of the possessions of the
The
estate which he had inherited from his father was no inconsiderable one, and
must have been of material assistance to him in professional advancement. Of
this we catch a glimpse in the rare and much. prized goshawk sent by him as a
present to Mr. Secretary Cromwell. (1)
At
the time of his death Chief Justice Luttrell was possessed of much personal as
well as real property, and shortly after his death the Crown applied to his
executors for the loan of what was then a very large amount of money. (1)
He
kept open house in the castle of Luttrellstown, and entailed on the future
owners certain property for the maintenance of hospitality there, together with
the use of a basin and ewer of silver, a silver gilt salt cellar and cover, a
dozen spoons, and a chain of fine gold of twenty links - articles of no small
value as is shown by their weight in ounces, which the Chief Justice sets forth
in his will. (1)
His
death took place in 1554, and he was, doubtless, buried according to his
directions, "honestly but without pomp," in
He
must have, at any rate outwardly, adopted the reformed faith, but his belief in
its creed did not prevent his leaving money for the preferment in marriage of
maidens of his kin in the hope of obtaining salvation for himself and his
brother Simon. (1)
Besides
providing for the extension of
The
Chief Justice was succeeded by his eldest son Christopher, who however survived
him only a short time, and two years after the Chief Justice's death, in 1556,
his second son, James, was in possession of Luttrellstown. (1)
However,
a manuscript I have on the Luterel-Baron Luterel lineage indicates that Thomas'
oldest son, Richard was still alive and succeeded him. It further indicates that Richard Luttrell,
Esquire, married Mary, daughter of Lord Dunsany, and widow of Thomas Plunket,
Esquire, of Rathmore, and by her had two daughters and one son. The two daughters being Anne who died
unmarried and Elizabeth who married Sir Christopher Nugent in 1601 and the son,
being Thomas who married Eleanor Preston and succeeded him. (2) I must now wonder if this is the correct
Richard to tie into this line especially since the marriage to Eleanor Preston
is even in question. And by Ball
believed to be Eleanor Cheevers instead.
In
that year the latter was Sheriff of the County Dublin, and in the expedition
against the Scottish invaders was ordered to serve in person as well as to
contribute four mounted archers His death, which took place in 1557, was, like
that of his brother, premature. In his will he appears in a very pleasing light
as a landlord, leaving legacies to those who had taken pains in the cultivation
of the Luttrellstown lands, and mentioning that he had given leases in one case
because the tenant had long served his family, and in another because the
tenant's house and goods had been burned. (1)
He
married, the year before his death, a sister of one of his neighbours, Sir
William Sarsfleld, of Lucan - a lady remarkable for having no less than five
husbands, of whom Luttrell was the second. By her he had a posthumous son, who
only lived three years. (1)
On
the death of this infant, Luttrellstown passed to the Chief Justice's third
son, Simon Luttrell, from whom the subsequent owners were descended. Of his
three younger brothers the eldest, Robert, settled at Tankardstown, in the
County Meath; the second, John, who died in 1620 and was buried at Clonsilla,
resided at a place called Killeigh; and the third, Walter, matriculated in 1572
at Oxford University. (1)

Thomas7 Luttrell (Simon6, Thomas5,
Richard4, Thomas3, Christopher2, Robert1)
was born 1576 - 1580 in
The
next owner of Luttrellstown, Thomas Luttrell, the eldest son of Simon Luttrell,
was returned in 1613, with his relative Sir Christopher Plunkett of Dunsoghly,
as Knight of the shire for the County Dublin, and took a prominent part in
public affairs as one of the leaders of the Roman Catholic party in the House
of Commons. (1)
He
was one of those who in 1605 signed the petition from the Roman Catholic lords
and gentlemen of the Pale, and his action at that time led to his confinement
in Dublin Castle, and to a recommendation from the Lord Deputy that on account
of his obstinacy in refusing to make any acknowledgement of wrong doings he
should be sent into England. (1)
He
was foremost in the contest for the Speaker's Chair in 1613, and was one of
those who went on the Roman Catholic deputation to James I. He had incurred the
bitter enmity of Lord Deputy Chichester, and owing to the allegations which the
Lord Deputy made against him was thrown into the Fleet Prison in London and
kept a prisoner for eleven weeks. (1)
The
rapid changes of that time soon brought him into favour again. In 1627 he was
returned as one of the men of fair estate in the English Pale who were fit to
be placed in command of a troop of horse, and in 1634 he was again elected as
one of the representative's of the
A
few months after that event, in November 1634, he departed this mortal life, as
a funeral entry informs us, and after a considerable interval necessary for the
preparation of a stately funeral was interred in
Thomas
Luttrell, a prominent Roman Catholic, was twice married, his first wife being
in 1605 to Eleanor Preston [according to Burkes
Extinct, daughter of the Earl of Gormanston (2) (3), but, Ball, vol.4,
1906, says she was Eleanor Cheevers, daughter of John Cheevers] (2), by whom he
had two sons, Simon and Stephen.
Another
source seems to confirm the
Thomas
Luttrell's second wife was Alison, daughter of Nicholas, twenty-first Baron of
Howth, by whom he had also two sons, John and Thomas. (1)
Besides
sons he had a number of daughters, one of whom married William, third Viscount
Fitzwilliam, of Merrion. Another married Walter Goulding. His provision for his
second wife, who survived him, and for his children, indicates that the wealth
of the Luttrells had not decreased in his hands. To his widow he left, in
addition to her jointure, Diswellstown, in the parish of Castleknock, as a dower
house; and besides much plate and household stuff he bequeathed to her twenty
great cows with their calves, three hundred sheep, six rams of the English
breed, and fifteen farm horses, as well as her riding horse and three horses to
carry the servants in attendance upon her. (1)
His
eldest son, to whom lie bequeathed his signet ring and gold chain, besides his
furniture and the greater portion of his plate, succeeded under settlement to
all his lands, but in consideration of the fatherly love and affection which he
bore to his younger children he had laid up for them in the iron-bound chests
in the gallery of Luttrellstown a great store of silver and gold, out of which
they were to be paid substantial legacies in current English money. (1)

Simon8 Luttrell (Thomas7, Simon6,
Thomas5, Richard4, Thomas3, Christopher2,
Robert1)37,37 was born 1600 in Luttrellstown,
Troublous
times fell to the lot of his eldest son, Simon Luttrell, who succeeded him, and
who lived to see Ireland under the rule of the Parliament. He was thirty-four
years of age when his father died, and had maintained the traditions of his
family by his marriage to Mary, daughter of Jenico, fifth Viscount Gormanston,
the widow of one of the Luttrell's near neighbours, Sir Thomas Allen of St.
Wolstan's. (1) I have seen where his
wife is listed as Janice but believe that the reading of Jenico is to be blamed. "He married Janice, daughter of the
fifth Viscount Gormanston, a cousin, and had sons: Simon, Henry, Robert. The
last named was the founder of the American family." (2) Whoever was the daughter of the fifth
Viscount of Gormanston, that is whom he married.
In
1643 he was returned to the dying Irish parliament at a by-election as member
for the borough of Navan, and in the following year he waited upon Charles I.

son of Thomas and Eleanor (
Two
years later, in 1646, he entertained the Marquis of Clanricarde at
Luttrellstown, while the Marquis was carrying on the negotiations between
Ormonde and General Preston, who had advanced as far as Lucan with the army of
the Confederates. (1)
His
death took place about 1650, and he left several children, including his heir,
Thomas Luttrell, but it was some time before the latter enjoyed the estates to
which he had succeeded. (1)

Sir
William Bury, who belonged to a
At
that time Luttrellstown is described as a great mansion house with twelve
chimneys, surrounded by offices, and having near it a malt house, a barn, and
two stables. All the buildings were slated, and the exceptional value of £1,000
placed upon them shows their large extent. (4)
Besides
pleasure-grounds and ornamental plantations there were in the demesne a garden
and no less than three orchards for the provision of the house, and two
quarries for the supply of stone. There were also attached to the house a corn
mill and a cloth mill, as well as a weir for catching salmon on the Liffey. (4)
In
the grange of Clonsilla there were a thatched house with offices, and another
mill surrounded by an orchard and grove of ash trees, and upon the other lands
belonging to the Luttrells a second thatched house of smaller size and about
twelve cottages. (4)
The
only lands in the parish of Clonsilla which did not belong to the Luttrells
were those of Coolmine, and Hartstown and Castaheany. The lands of Coolmine,
which after the dissolution of St. Mary's Abbey, had been successively granted
to Walter Peppard and the Earl of Thomond, had before 1641 come into the
possession of Sir Edward Bolton, Chief Baron of the Exchequer, and on them were
stated to be a thatched house with two stone chimneys, besides a barn, a
stable, and several small cottages. (4)
The
lands of Hartstown and Castaheany belonged to the Barnewall family, and on them
there was no building. Shortly before the Restoration the population of the
parish was returned as forty-two persons of English birth and eighty-seven of
Irish, the principal inhabitants besides Sir William Bury being Richard
Broughall, who lived in the Grange, and James Russell, who lived on the lands
of Coolmine. (4)
During
the Commonwealth the Luttrells resided in
About
the time of the Restoration, Henry Segrave's death took place, and at Finglaswood,
in the following October, his widow, Alice Noble, made her will. In it
she-bequeathed to her sons sacramental plate, some of which was in the hands of
the priests, and farm stock at Finglaswood to her unmarried daughters, Alice
and Elinor, houses called the Saracen's Head and the Horse-shoe, with a horse
"to carry them on their journey and up and down"; and to her married
daughters, Jane, wife of Benedict Arthur of Much Cabragh, and Barbara, wife of
Thomas Luttrell of Luttrellstown, some of her mugs and other jewels.'(5)
Owing
to the influence of the Duke of Ormonde, whose friendship the Luttrells
enjoyed, Thomas Luttrell was one of those mentioned by name in the Act of
Settlement as deserving of restoration to his estates, and in 1663 the
Commissioners of Settlement directed that he should be placed in possession of
them. (4)
At
the same time the widow of his grandfather, Thomas Luttrell, the Knight of the
shire for the County Dublin, who stated that she had been a great sufferer by
the Rebellion, and that she had maintained her husband's younger children with
motherly care, proved herself an innocent Roman Catholic, as did also her son
Thomas, the only surviving son of her husband, who mentioned that he had been
partly educated in England, and who settled in the County Westmeath. (4)
Some
years later the owner of Luttrellstown took part in a remarkable duel, in which
the principals escaped without hurt but the seconds sustained serious injury.
Not long before his death, which took place in 1673, his son Simon was in the
matrimonial market, and an agent of the Legge family, who was on terms of
intimacy with the elder Thomas Luttrell, the uncle of the owner of
Luttrellstown, tried to arrange a match between Simon Luttrell and a Miss
Legge. (4)
There
seems to be some question as to who was the father of Henry and Simon who
fought for King James II in the war with Prince William of
In
an article published in a magazine in
This
seems to also be confirmed in Notable
Southern Families, however, it gives one conflicting statement. "He [Thomas] was succeeded by his son,
Simon Luttrell, who was a gallant officer under King James II, and was a member
of the Irish Parliament of 1698 from
If
this is indeed the same Simon, then the date of 1698 must be incorrect. This would seem true according to the article
in the Shamrock Magazine. "In the
parliament of 1689 Simon Luttrell sat as one of the members for the
So
then where does the conflict of Simon being the father come into place? In the book, The History of West Virginia and It’s People, it indicates,
"Simon, son of Thomas and Eleanor (
So
we find that Simon and Henry definitely descend from Simon, the son of Thomas
and Eleanor (

Simon Luttrell was a man of handsome stature at the time he entered into
possession of his ancestral estates, and although a match with Miss Legge had
not taken place he had found a wife in Catherine, daughter of Sir Thomas
Newcomen of Sutton. Her mother was a sister of Richard Talbot, Earl of
Tyrconnel (A tombstone in Clonsilla Churchyard bears the following inscription:
- "Here Lyeth ye Body of Frances Lady Newcomen, Wife to Sr. Thomas Newcomen
of Sutton & Daughter to Sir William Talbot of Cartown Barronet, who
deceased Feb. ye 17 1687."), but Miss Newcomen had been brought up as a
Protestant, and the marriage was celebrated first by a clergyman of the
Established Church, although subsequently by the Roman Catholic Archbishop of
Dublin. (3)
Colonel
Simon Luttrell appears for many years to have suffered from ill health. In a
letter written by him in

permitted, he would seek military employment. (3)

It
is believed that Michael's wife is Dinah Shumate, the daughter of Daniel
Shumate, however, I have found no proof to document this. I did find a Power of Attorney for Samuel
Luttrell and wife Dinah requesting Samuel Shumate to represent them regarding
Daniel Shumate's estate. This leads me
to believe that Samuel Luttrell’s wife is Dinah Shumate.
Another
problem I have with this family is that Dinah had children very late in life
and a census I found for daughter Hannah (the youngest) indicates she was born
in 1790 which is after Dinah has died.

Unless
I can find something to tell me that Richard, Jr. sold this land (and purchased
land in Culpeper County), I can't come out and say that the Culpeper County,
Richard Jr. and the Fauquier County Richard Jr., are the same person since in
Richard Jr.'s Culpeper County, will, he didn't leave the Fauquier County land
to any of his heirs. If I can find a
land sale showing that he sold the land, then it might be a possibility, but I
can't even find that. Let us not forget that there is another Richard Jr. and
Sr. living in
To
also confirm that this might be the Westmoreland branch is a notation in
Bulletin #3, Page 239, of the Fauquier Historical Society, where the names of
Richard Luttrell, Richard Luttrell, Jr., and William Luttrell appear. "This William Luttrell is no doubt the
son of John and grandson of Old Simon of Westmoreland County. Richard Sr., and Simon were brothers, sons of

Notes
for Dinah Shumate:
HOW
CAN DINAH HAVE A SON WHEN SHE IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD!!!! She has to be born closer to her husband's
date of birth (1730-1740).
Marcine's
Note: I think I may have the answer to
this problem. It is not proven but is
feasible. I show that Samuel was also
married to Annis Crowther. If she were
his first wife and she were closer to Samuel's age, then Daniel could be her
son. I know that Dinah Schumate's father
was named Daniel and it is believed that Daniel Luttrell is named after him but
I believe Daniel was a common enough name that he wasn't. This is only a possible theory that would
explain why Daniel is only about 5 years older than his mother.

LUTTRELL. In Elston Luttrell's
manuscript he is called one of the emigrant brothers. He may have been born abroad, but his father
was certainly here with him. His wife,
according to John Lewis Luttrell, No. 49, was Winifred Larrance who, with
certain of her children, went from Fauquire to Frederick County, Va., where she
died on the 19 Mar. 1816 or 1818. By
deed of Dec. 1766, recorded in Fauquire deed book 2, page 590, John Luttrell
conveyed unto his brother James, a parcel of land formerly belonging to his father,
Richard. By act of the Virginia General
