Geoffrey Luterel, Andrew's father, by marriage with Frethesant, daughter and
eventually sole heir of William Paynel. Irnham, East Quantockshead and Hooton
Pagnell thus descended in the Luterel family. [Complete Peerage X:320]
--------------------------
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]
