Of Port Tobacco, Charles Co, Maryland, and so me of his descendants, with a sketch of the allied family of Offutt, of Pr ince Georges Co, Maryland., (Washington, D.C.: Harry Wright Newman, 1938. ), Samuel Luckett Gentleman and Adventurer. Repository: , Call Number:R92 9.2 L941. Surety: 3 In the absence of facts regarding the emigrant ances tor, one must examine known truths of his life and thus make deductions ac cordingly. Samuel Luckett, the Maryland progenitor, failed to apply for h is 50 acres of land which were due each and every settler upon his declar ed intentions to inhabit permanently in Maryland. In the absence of this i nstrument one does not know whether he emigrated and thus paid for his o wn passage, or whether he was brought into Maryland by another party. T he former is believed to be the circumstances, for usually those who trans ported settlers and servants were most anxious to acclaim their righ ts to the 50 acres. The very first evidence of his being in Maryland was d uring the fall of 1678 when he received 30 pounds of tobacco for his parti cipation in the Nanticoke Indian War.1 This fact is rather significant, be cause it proves that he served in the ranks and inasmuch as the war was n ot one in which all man power was conscripted, it is concluded that he w as young and therefore not more than thirty years of age at that time. Con sequently, it is estimated that his birth occurred around the year 1650. S ix years later, March 1684, he witnessed the will of his neighbor, Colon el William Chandler, an early and wealthy planter of Port Tobacco, who h ad migrated from Virginia. In August of the same year he purchased from Wi lliam Smoot, of the Wicomico, for 5,000 pounds of tobacco the tract 'Johns on's Royke', formerly laid out for George Goodrick. 1: Maryland Archive s, vol. 7, p. 101. And in the year 1684 Samuel Luckett married a young a nd affluent widow. From the foregoing facts, there is nothing to discred it the theory that he was born before 1650, and it is highly possible th at his birth occurred even sometime after that year. However, 1650 is a fa ir estimate. Studying the names of his children, one may derive other conc lusions. His four sons were William, Samuel, Thomas Hussey, and Thoma s. No known justification is apparent for the first name__William. Samu el was his namesake, while Thomas Hussey was the full name of his father-i n-law. But the fact that he named his youngest son Thomas Hussey when o ne was already baptized Thomas is important. In those days the naming of c hildren was significant and they were not given because they met with t he fancy of the parents. One son was most assuredly named after the patern al grandfather, and it is not believed to be William. It was most likely T homas, a name common to the Lucketts of County Kent, England. From vario us factors it can be assumed, though proof is lacking, that the fath er of the American emigrant was born in the early 1600's in England-probab ly about 1620. Shortly after November 24, 1683, Samuel Luckett, of Port To bacco, married the young and childless widow of John Gardiner__a sci on of an early and prominent Roman Catholic family. On the above_mention ed date the widow was granted letters of administration on the estate of h er deceased husband, at which time Richard Gardiner and Luke Gardiner, Gen t., of St. Mary's Co, offered bond. At the Perogative Court held in Charl es County during 1684, 'Appeared Samuel Luckett of Charles County who inte rmarried with the relict and administrator of John Gardiner and showeth th at he never intermedled with goods'. Here proof exists of his marria ge to the widow, and also for the belief that he had interferred with t he estate of her deceased husband. Elizabeth was the daughter and co_heire ss of Thomas Hussey, Gent., and his second wife Johanna. Although Thomas H ussey entered the Province as an indenture, he was styled Gent., indicati ng in that day that he was a scion of the English gentry. His signatu re is found on documents which prove that he was educated in letters__an a ccomplishment not always attributable to many of the early settlers. He be came one of the interesting characters of the early days and once wro te to Lord Baltimore that he had been robbed by the Indians 'of alle but t he clothes on my bodye'. He contracted numerous marriages, and whi le it is not clear whether he professed the Roman or Anglican fait h, it is known that his second wife was a Catholic, the religion which w as imparted to their two daughters. Thomas Hussey died at the beginni ng of the eighteenth century, and by his will, proved October 14, 170 0, he devised his grandson and namesake, Thomas Hussey Luckett, 1,310 acr es of land at Chingamucon (Chicamuxen) which lay in Durham Parish, the wes tern_most portion of the county. The brother_in_law of Samuel Luckett, th at is, William Langworth who married Anne, the other daughter of Thomas Hu ssey, dated his will February 7, 1693, and devised to his 'brother Samu el Luckett's three sons'__Samuel, Thomas, and Ignatius__the estate of h is three daughters on the condition that they died during minority and wit hout issue. Children of Samuel and Elizabeth (Hussey) Luckett
1. Samuel Luckett married Anne (???). q.v.
2. Thomas Luckett married Sarah (???). q.v.
3. Ignatius Luckett married Jane (???). q.v.
4. Thomas Hussey Luckett married Elizabeth Price. q.v. In January 1695, Samuel Luckett was bondsman for 'Major James Smallwood w ho married Mary the relict of Robert Thompson, Jr., late of Charles County '. All were his neighbors on Port Tobacco Creek. He was a member of t he Provincial Court during 1696, and in that year signed a Petition to t he King as a civil officer of Charles County.2 This fact alone establish es him as a member of the Church of England, inasmuch as beginning with t he reign of William and Mary, all members of the Romanish faith were disen franchised and barred from holding office. On July 3, 1703, he and Colon el William Dent offered bond for Charity Courts and John Contee, the execu tors of the estate of James Keech, late of St. Mary's County. The wi ll of Samuel Luckett was dated March 5, 1705, and proved in Charles Coun ty on July 18, 1705, by Philip Briscoe, Sr., Joseph Venom, and Michael Wat erer. From the tone of the will it is concluded that all of his sons we re minors except perhaps his eldest child Samuel who was of sufficient a ge to be named joint executor with his mother Elizabeth. 2 Maryland Archiv es, vol. 20, pp. 539, 543, 558. He devised 'Smoot's Chance' to his wife, a nd 'Hussey's Discovery' of 200 acres to his son Samuel as well as 150 acr es adjacent to the land formerly known to be Captain Josias Fendall and th en adjoining the plantation of the widow Elizabeth Hawkins. He willed Thom as 500 acres of land in Virginia near Quantico, Ignatius 100 acres call ed 'Thompson's Square', and personalty to his young son Thomas Hussey Luck ett. The residue of the estate was bequeathed to his wife and children 'in cluding money due in England'. The latter could be receipts from his tobac co crops, yet, there is a possibility that it refers to a legacy or the po rtion of his parent's estate. The inventory of his personal estate was tak en on April 5, 1705, and appraised by Captain Philip Briscoe and Michael M artin at s829/13/3. The inventory listed articles at 'the Old House', whi ch was undoubtedly the smaller and less pretentious home first built, a nd it may have been a primitive log cabin which the settlers usually bui lt upon arrival. Then there was 'Zachia Quarter' where his seven white ind entured servants were housed. No negro slaves were listed. In his mansi on house there were 'the hall; Mrs. Luckett's Roome and the little Roome a djoining; ye Roome chamber; Hall Chamber; and ye two new room Chambers'. T he outer dwellings were a milk house, salt house, kitchen, ordinary, a nd a stable stocked with 16 horses. The bondsmen for the executors were Ph ilip Briscoe and Michael Martin. Prior to the death of Samuel Lucket t, he was the administrator of the estate of William Earle, of Charles C o, but after his death Philip Harrold instituted action against the esta te of Earle and obtained judgment. Elizabeth Luckett in court swore that h er deceased husband fully administered on the estate of Earle and knew ' of no effects in her hands' belonging to the estate and requested time ' to the court of 13 November next that she may better inform herself in t he matter'. Elizabeth lost but little time in acquiring a third husband, a nd by November 6, 1705, she had married John Hanson. On that date, the lat ter, his wife Elizabeth, and Samuel Luckett 'executors of Samuel Lucket t, deceased' rendered an account to the Perogative Court. At the 1705 fa ll session of the County Court the grand jury, with John Beale as forema n, indicted Nicholas Gulick, a Romanist priest, for 'marrying John Hans on and the widdow Luckett contrary to Law'. Likewise, John Hanson and Eli zabeth his wife were indicted 'for being and suffering the . . to marry '. The first husband of Elizabeth Hussey was a member of a staunch Roman C atholic family, but Samuel Luckett was not and furthermore was not convert ed to her faith, yet there is every evidence that her four Luckett sons we re all raised under the Catholic banner. Her third husband was of a fami ly as staunch in their support of the Church of England as the Gardiners w ere of Rome, yet one sees a scion being married by a Roman priest. And the ir four Hanson children were raised under the dogma of Rome.
Preface: Work on the Luckett family was begun about ten years ago for my f riend, Mrs. Mary Luckett Drane, of Clarksville, Tennessee, and as I have a nimated interest in all early settlers of Maryland and their descendant s, I became involved in a complete genealogical history of the family. A y ear ago I conceived the idea of publishing the research, and thus gi ve to the many descendants of this prominent family, especially that bran ch descending from Colonel William Luckett, of Montgomery Co, Maryland, t he benefits of their colonial and revolutionary background. The project w as met with gross
indifference by those members of the family now residing within Maryla nd and the District of Columbia, and inasmuch as the research and printi ng had to be financed solely by me, the response from only twelve membe rs of the family outside of Maryland indicated that the publication wou ld be most difficult. Rather than relinquish the idea, it was decided to c omplete the task and thus in a visible manner extend my gratitude to the t welve descendants who submitted prepublication subscriptions. Of the twel ve I wish especially to express my sincere thanks for the enthusiasm and w ork of Mrs. Miriam Bryan Miller, of Morganton, North Carolina, twice a lin eal descendant of Colonel William Luckett of the French and Indian Wa rs as well as the Revolution, who aroused a sense of family consciousne ss among the Bryan-Offutt descendants. And none the least do I wish to ext end my appreciation to Mrs. Drane who also did much to make her immedia te kinsmen acquire a sense of pride for their colonial forbears. I regre t, however, that it was inexpedient to publish the extensive data which we re collected on other lines, especially the Lucketts who settled in Georg ia and those who remained in Maryland-but after much time, patience, and c orrespondence, it was impossible to arouse interest sufficient for a sing le subscription among them, though many expressed their pleasure to know t hat such a book would be published and would be 'thrilled' to have it cont ain their name and lineage.
Despite these many obstacles, however, my fourth book is offered to t he public on families of Maryland, a Province in which all of my coloni al ancestors settled in the seventeenth century-now a State which shou ld be honored and hallowed by all who can claim descent from the brave a nd courageous pioneers whether nobility, gentry, yeomanry, or servant w ho settled within her borders before seventeen hundred. The Lucketts of Po rtobacco Naturally much interest is centered in the emigrant ancestor-n ot only because it is he who is the progenitor of all bearing his na me in the States of today, but because there is interest in the motives wh ich actuated his leaving the Old World and beginning life anew in virgin t erritory. Then much curiosity exists regarding the Anglo-Saxon backgrou nd of the pioneer and the part his ancestors played in the shaping of Engl and or Scotland which in his day had become the United Kingdom of Great Br itain and Ireland. Often correct conclusions are drawn why the settler le ft his natal land. Many emigrated to America for political or religious fr eedom, some to establish trade relations with the mother country and in th is instance often a younger son of a merchant in Bristol or London was se nt to promote the business of his father. Others came for pure adventure a nd the opportunity to advance their social position when it was almost imp ossible to rise above the station in life to which they were born in conse rvative England of the seventeenth century. Then there were the prisone rs of war or the defeated leaders of revolutions, who were sent or so ld in America as indentures, as well as the exiled criminal-high crimes a nd misdemeanors as well as petty crimes against society. Maryland receiv ed her share of such criminals, but the greater portion was sent further S outh, especially to the Carolinas and Georgia. Tadition is interesting a nd should be regarded, but in the greater number of cases it is the fancif ul dream of some one in the past generation and can be disproved after ade quate research. Most genealogical writers of the late nineteenth century w ere endowed with most vivid imagination and had most early settlers, espec ially those of Maryland and Virginia, the sons and daughters of lords a nd dukes, parading around the colonial villages and plantations with gold_ hilted swords and jeweled snuff boxes. As a consequence, the present gener ation believes these tales and a great many refuse to accept the truth ev en in the face of absolute proof the contrary. The Luckett family also h as its traditions. The original Luckett was one of the colonists who settl ed in Lord Baltimore's Province of Avalon on the Isle of Newfoundland duri ng 1621, and came to Virginia when Lord Baltimore visited that colony in 1 629, and there he remained. A few years later in 1634 when Leonard Calver t, son of the First Lord Baltimore, established the Maryland Palatinat e, he removed to Maryland to become once again under the sovereignty of h is former lordship. Only little credence can be placed in this traditio n, for no proof has been found for its authenticity. Regarding the backgro und of the emigrant ancestor, the task is exceedingly more difficult to as certain or even to make accurate deductions. It seems as if a curtain we re drawn when the emigrant came to this side of the globe. Furthermore, t he burning of the offices in London during 1820 containing the passenger l ists of the ships, the age of the passenger, his place of birth, his oa th of fidelity to the Crown has completely destroyed the greatest and mo st coveted information which we in America are seeking. Experience has con sequently shown that the proving of the parents of an American coloni st is not only a long and laborious task in searching the preserved recor ds of England, but in most instances it has proved impossible. And in t he majority of cases when it is stated that the English ancestry of the fo refather is known, it is often questionable and fails to lend itself to ab solute proof. Thus, the task of locating the parents of the Luckett pione er of Maryland has been most difficult and so far with no positive result s. The Virginia records disclose one Richard Luckett being transport ed by William Wildy in 1657 and one Edward Luckett by Edmund Machen, of N ew Kent County in 1662. These men left no recorded history in the Virgin ia archives, and it is noted that Richard and Edward were names not fou nd in the first four generations of the Luckett family in Maryland. Furthe rmore, from the indistinct script of the Virginia archives, the names up on examination could be Suckett as well as Luckett. The records of the La nd Office at Richmond disclose that no freeholder bearing the name of Samu el Luckett applied for Virginia headrights prior to 1666. English Backgrou nd All authorities on surnames agree that Luckett is a diminutive of the g iven name Luke-which has also given rise to Lukin, Luckins, Luckings, Luck ock, Lucock, Locock, Locard, Lockard, Lockhart, Lockit, Lockitt, Locket, L ockett, Luckit, and Lucket. It has been said that these names are of Norma n-French origin, and its earliest known member in England was Locard. He a ccompanied the forces of William the Conqueror to Britain in 1066 and foug ht at the decisive battle of Hastings, but failing to return to his nati ve Normandy, he remained in England and founded the families which bear h is name in one form or another. While actual documentary proof of the abo ve is lacking, it is known, however, that the earliest family using the sp elling Lockett and Luckett, mostly the latter, was by 1530 in County Ken t, England, which is the nearest approach to France. It is also known th at many Normen settled in Kent after the Conquest as well as a number of H uguenots of a later date. The earliest freeholder found is that of Wilhel mi Lucket, of Chislet Parish, Kent. At the parish church of St. Mary's, h is son Ambrose was baptized according to the rites of the Church of Engla nd in 1556. The entry reads as follows: 'Ambrosius filis Wilhelmi Lucket e rat baptisatus 11 die Augusti patrib?? et matr Ambrosius yong thome herd es margeria idivyn Anno D'Ni 1556.' The next entry is 'Elizabet Locket w as chrystyn the XXX day off Januarij Anno Donni 1560'. Ambrosius Lucket ma rried on April 22, 1594, Agnes Bricken, and had issue. And contemporary wi th Ambrosius were John and Thomas. In the register are fifty-three Luket t, Luckett, and Lockett entries of baptisms, marriages, and burials from 1 556 to 1679, but not a single Samuel. Thomas appears somewhat frequently a nd also Thomasine, the feminine form, which indicates that Thomas was a si gnificant name in this family. The absence of Samuel indicates, unless t he records of the parish are incomplete, that he was born elsewhere, b ut it does demonstrate that Samuel was not a strong name on the paternal s ide, and that it probably came through the distaff side of which no kno wn information is in existence. The visitations consulted on Kent disclo se no connections with local armorial families, nor do the publicatio ns on heraldry show any arms granted to any member using the spelling of L uckett-they do, however, show arms issued to the branch which adapted t he orthography of Lockett. The arms contained in this book is described a s: 'Or, a chevron gules between three stags' heads couped proper.'
