George Luttrell

George Luttrell (12 Sep 1560 – Apr 1629) was an English politician from Dunster Castle in Somerset. In 1582 and 1584 he sat in the House of Commons of England as a Member of Parliament (MP) for his family's pocket borough of Minehead.[1]

George Luttrell (1560-1629)

He was the oldest son of Thomas Luttrell of Dunster Castle. His mother, Margaret, was a daughter of Christopher Hadley of Withycombe. His younger brother was John Luttrell.[1]

He married twice: Firstly, on 25 Sep 1580 to Joan Stukley, the younger daughter of his Ward, a "shady lawyer" named Hugh Stukley, of Marsh, Somerset. Secondly he married, at the age of 62, on 3 October 1622 a woman of relatively humble origins, named Sylvestra Capps, daughter of James Capps of Wiveliscombe, Devon; she outlived him by over 25 years and remarried twice. George Luttrell had a total of 5 sons and 9 daughters. His eldest son and heir by his first wife Joan was Thomas Luttrell (c. 1583 – 1644) q.v.[1][2]

He was Sheriff of Somerset in 1593 and in 1609.[1]
