"Richard Luttrell, Jr., was born in 1735 (note age he would have been at birth of children listed above) in Fauquire County, Virginia, the son of Richard Sr. He went from Virginia to North Carolina in 1755 (obvious error in year) seeking to make a claim to the estate of the late Colonel John Luttrell of the Transylvania Purchase. When this plan failed he moved into Kentucky to acquire land in the new territory. He settled in Adair County, Kentucky and was married to Nancy Rains, the daughter of John Rains, a Revolutionary War Soldier whose family was from Pennsylvania. The property of Richard was first entered in the name of his brother Michael".

"Richard died on August 21, 1815 (this is the date on the Adair County Court Inventory of Richard's property--see below) in Adair County, Kentucky. . . . His wife Nancy survived him, and his son Richard III inherited his property on the South Fork on Goose Creek, on December 18, 1819".

from "Luttrell Kentucky Ancestors" by The Reverend Terril D. Littrell, Ph.D. no other references to Richard III

"Richard Luttrell, son of Michael Luttrell, Sr., and Dina Luttrell, married Debra Helfin on March 29, 1800 in Green County, Kentucky. They lived on the land that Michael received in the Land Grant prior to the act of 1795. This land was located in Adair County, Kentucky". Nancy is shown as his widow on several records after Richard's death

"The April 20, 1808 Commissioner's Book, lists this property as taxable to Richard Luttrell. The property is described in the books as 200 acres on the Green River Water Course. The tax records of Casey County in 1817 show that Thomas, John and Nancy Luttrell live on this estate. The land of course would go to the heirs of Richard and Debra Luttrell".

from "Luttrell Kentucky Ancestors" by The Reverend Terril D. Littrell, Ph.D. many errors in the information above

______________________________________________

From 1810 Census of Adair County, Kentucky

"Luttrell, Richard" - 1 male under 10, 2 males 16 to 26, 1 over 45*

females - 2 - 10 to 16, 1 - 16 to 26, 1 - 26 to 45*

* This makes Richard born prior to 1765 and Nancy born between 1765 - 1784

Re: Nancy Rains Luttrell

*There are questions as to accuracy of Richard Luttrell's wife's name.

"Richard Luttrell married Nancy Rains, granddaughter of John Jones, a Revolutionary soldier."

from article in "The Waverly Journal", Waverly, Illinois, Oct. 5, 1962, by Mrs. Guy Martin

_________________________________________________________

"Nancy Luttrell, Widow and Relict of Richard Luttrell dec'd., and Joshua D. Luttrell, son of the said dec'd., of the first part and Caleb Luttrell of the second part. The said Richard Luttrell died intestate in 1815, the owner of 200 acres of land in Adair Co., held by head right certificate and patent issued since his death to his heirs, bearing date Jan. 19, 1829. Whereas the said Richard left his wife and ten children as his legal heirs and the said Caleb has purchased from the said Nancy and Joshua for $40.00 all their interest in the said tract of land."

from Adair County, Kentucky Court Records Deed Book H, Page 118. Sept. 26, 1831.

John Jones, Jr., Thomas Luttrell and Jas. Reatherford are listed as witnesses in the "sale of 100 acres by Dudley Reatherford and Catherine, his wife to Tirey Staton for $400., being part of the tract where said Reatherford lives."

Adair County, Kentucky, Deed Book B, Page 246. July 3, 1809

Is this "John Jones, Jr." possibly the son of the John Jones, Revolutionary soldier referred to above and possibly the uncle of Nancy (could be her father and she could have married first a Rains)?

Note: on same page Richard C. Littrell also shown on 6 Jan. 1838 marrying Mary Ann P. Haynie, James Ashburn sec.

Could this "Nancy Rains" be a niece of Richard Luttrell's Nancy Rains? Sons and daughters being named after parent's siblings not uncommon at all.

In information about a Winfrey family who settled in Wayne County, Kentucky. . .

"Nelson Winfrey was born about 1816 in Adair County, Kentucky. His mother was

Lucy Jones Winfrey. His sisters were. . .Nancy Luttrell. . . ."

From "Wayne County Kentucky Pioneers", Vol. 4, compiled and Publ. by June Baldwin York; submitted by James C. Winfrey of Kansas City, Missouri

Probably not Richard Luttrell's wife, Nancy. At least, she would probably not be old enough to be the mother of his children.
