Emanuell Lutton

Emanuell Lutton is named in James Lutton's will (1663) as the living brother of James, and is linked in the will to land in Devonshire. This would be consistent with an Emanuel (sic) Lutton, who is named in Thomas Colby's Visitation of the county of Devon in the year 1620 as the eldest son of Emanuel Lutton of Cofford in the parish of Kenton [Devonshire]. Emanuel's age is given as twenty in the year of the visitation, with brothers James (16), John (14), Francis (10) and Richard (7), and sisters Mary (18) and Elizabeth (9).^[1]

James Lutton

James Lutton described himself in his will as a "gentleman" of East Greenwich. Kent. He referred in his will to property in Greenwich, Salisbury and Devon, and to investment in shipping.^[2] The same will identified his wife as Bridgett, whose own will was proved five years later in 1668.^[3]

James Lutton's will identifies a brother (Emanuell Lutton), with whom James Lutton had a mortgage of lands in DEvonshire. The will also identifies "Cosen James [Lutton]", who was to redeem the emortgage, and a further male cosin (Mr Thomas Cullen).

James Lutton had two daughters by his wife Bridgett, and one daughter, who was the child of his wife's first husband, the deceased Henry Hodgkin. The first biological daughter is named in the will as Christian Lutton, together with her intended husband (Ralph Hodgkin). Unusually, the intended husband was Bridgett Lutton's son by her former husband. A second biological daughter is named as Elizabeth Lutton. The daughter by the wife's first husband is named as Sarah Hodgkin.

James Lutton identifies the parish of Kenton in Devonshire as the place of his birth, and makes a charitable gift to this parish as well as to the parish of East Greenwich.

Bridgett Lutton was named the sole executrix. The will was written when "at present sicke and weake in body", and signed and dated September 7th 1663. It was proved a month later on October 21st 1663.
