"Troublous times fell to the lot of . . .Simon Luttrell (IV). . . 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.
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. at Oxford. 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."
from Ball's "A History of the County Dublin"
This is not Simon Luttrell, the fourth or fifth. This is the fourth or fifth Luttrell of Luttrellstown named Simon. The red numerals are to keep the various "Simons" more easily distinguished from one another (the webmaster gets easily confused)
*Robert Luttrell of Simonstown is shown to be Col. Simon (V) Luttrell's uncle in (10) and is said to be an
immigrant to America, by many Luttrell researchers.
In 1668, Thomas and Robert Luttrell are shown as defendants in the Chancery Court. . .and their mother,
Mary, is the plaintiff. Deft. Walter Grace is Mary's son-in-law, married to Frances Luttrell.
Could this be some kind of estate issue, since Dame Mary Allen Luttrell died 1666?
Walter Grace married Frances Luttrell 1664
