BARONY of LUTEREL

Sir GEOFFREY LUTTRELL (b), of Gamston and Bridgeford, co. Notts, took part in the 
unsuccessful rebellion of John, Count of Mortain during the absence of his brother, 
Richard I, and, as a result, lost his lands. These were, however, restored to him on 
John's accession to the throne. His name occurs at this period as witness to many 
royal charters, he having been in close personal attendance on the King. He was for a 
time paymaster of the King's ships. In 1204, and also in 1215, he was in Ireland, 
vested with large administrative powers, and in 1206 in Poitou and Gascony, as one of 
the King's treasurers. As a reward for personal services, he received from King John 
grants for life of the houses of the Jew, Isaac of York, at Oxford and Northampton, 
and those of the Jew, Bonnechose, at Oxford. He received a further grant of land at 
Croxton, co. Leicester.

He married, before 26 February 1203/4, Frethesant, daughter and coheir of William 
PAYNELL. He died in 1216 or 1217. His widow married, in 1217, Henry DE 
NEWMARCH. He was dead in 1239. [Complete Peerage VIII:283-4, (transcribed by 
Dave Utzinger)]

NOTE: CP, in note (i) under the son Andrew, states that possibly Frethesant was 
married a 3rd time to Roger de Triberge/Thribergh.

(b) The name is probably a diminutive of the French word Loutre, an otter. The farm of 
Arques in Normandy was in 1180 and 1198 held by one Osbert Lotrel.

--------------------------

The noble family of Luttrell, or Loterell, was established in England by one of the 
chiefs in the Norman Conquest, whose name is to be found in the Roll of Battle Abbey. 
In the reigns of Henry I [1100-1135] and King Stephen [1135-1154], Sir John Luttrell 
held, in capite, the manor of Hoton Pagnel, in Yorkshire, which vested in his male 
descendants until the time of Henry V, when it devolved upon an heiress, who 
espoused John Scott, feudal lord of Calverley, and steward of the household to the 
Empress Maud.

The estates of Sir Geoffrey Luttrell, knt. in the counties of Derby, Leicester, 
Nottingham, and York, were confiscated in the reign of Richard I [1189-1199] for his 
adhesion to John, Earl of Morton, but they were restored upon the accession of that 
prince to the throne as King John. Sir Geoffrey subsequent accompanied the king into 
Ireland and obtained from the crown a grant of Luttrellstown, in that kingdom. The 
descendants of Sir Geoffrey were afterwards feudal barons of Irnham. [John Burke, 
History of the Commoners of Great Britain and Ireland, Vol. I, R. Bentley, London, 
1834-1838, p. 142, Luttrell, of Dunster Castle]
