Luttrell was the eldest son of
Thomas Luttrell of Luttrellstown and Barbara Sedgrave. He was the elder brother of
Henry Luttrell. Luttrell was also appointed military governor of
Dublin. In this capacity, he raised a regiment of 374 dragoons, prepared Dublin's defences against an awaited assault, and worked with
Terence MacDermott to disarm the city's Protestant inhabitants. He was
attainted by the Williamite government. Following the lifting of the
first Siege of Limerick in 1690, Luttrell was a member of the delegation which travelled to the Jacobite court at
Château de Saint-Germain-en-Laye to call for the removal of Tyrconnell from the viceroyalty. He returned to Ireland on 28 October 1691, shortly after the Jacobite defeat, but Luttrell refused to avail himself of the pardon granted to him under the
Articles of Limerick and left again for France. There he was given command of a battalion in the
Irish Brigade of the
French Royal Army. He served under
Nicolas Catinat in Italy and
Louis Joseph, Duke of Vendôme in Catalonia during the
Nine Years' War. He died at
Crest, Drôme in 1698. His confiscated estates had been transferred to his younger brother, Henry. ==References==
