Simon Luttrell was born in 1600 at Luttrellstown, County Dublin, Ireland. He was the son of Thomas Luttrell Esq. and Lady Eleanor Preston Cheevers. Simon Luttrell married Mary Preston, daughter of Jenico Preston and Margaret Saint Lawrence, in 1634 at Gormanston, County Meath, Ireland. Simon Luttrell died in 1650.      Troublous times fell to the lot of his [Thomas Lutrell, Esquire] 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) Simon's wife is sometimes listed as Janice but it is believed 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 by election as member for the borough of Navan, and in the following year he waited upon Charles I at Oxford.      (3) Simon, son of Thomas and Eleanor (Preston) Luttrell, was made a gentleman of the Bedchamber to Charles the Second. However, according to History of a Noted Irish Family, it states that it was Simon's son, Thomas, who was made a Gentleman of the Bedchamber not Thomas' son Simon.      (4) 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. ((5) 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. He died in the Battle of Lindon, in the French army.

Thomas Luttrell Esq. was born between 1576 and 1580. He was the son of Richard Luttrell and Mary Dunsany. Thomas Luttrell Esq. married Lady Eleanor Preston Cheevers, daughter of Christopher Preston 4th Viscount Gormanston and Catherine ______, in 1605 at Luttrellstown, County Dublin, Ireland. Thomas Luttrell Esq. married Alison Saint Lawrence, daughter of Nicholas Howth 21st Baron, in 1616.      Thomas Luttrell, Esq. Member of Parliament for County Dublin, in the reigns of King James and King Charles, and a privy Councillor.      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.      (2) 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.      (3) 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 County Dublin, and was present at the opening of Strafford's first parliament.      (4) 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 Clonsilla Church.      (5) 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; but [Ball, vol.4, 1906] says she was Eleanor Cheevers, daughter of John Cheevers]; by whom he had two sons, Simon and Stephen. Another source seems to confirm the Preston marriage. 'Thomas, son of Richard Luttrell, had the audacity to make a comparison with the Earl of Thomond, the Chief of the O'Briens, in the Lord Deputy's presence. He married Eleanor Preston, daughter of Christopher, fourth Lord Viscount Gormanston, by Catherine, daughter of William Fitz-William and had a son, Simon.'      (6) 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. 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. 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.
