Marcelle D. Hoskins's "Samuel Luckett of MD: Some of His Descendants" (1990), which is lifted largely from "The Lucketts of Portobacco" by Harry W. Newman (Washington, 1938), contains the following:
"Elizabeth Hussey was the daughter of Thomas Hussey, Gent., and his wife, Johanna, who were of the Roman Catholic faith. The 'Gent.' indicated that he was descended from English gentry. Documents bearing his signature indicate that he was educated in letters, an accomplishment not too common among early settlers. The date of his birth is not known nor is the date of his death; however, his will was proved/probated 14 October 1700. In the will he granted to his youngest grandson and name sake, Thomas Hussey Luckett, the son of Elizabeth and Samuel Luckett, 1130 acres of land at Chicamuxen, Durham Parish, Charles County, MD. It seems that they had only two daughters: Elizabeth and Anne Hussey who was married to William Langworth. Thomas Hussey Luckett was the only son of Samuel and Elizabeth who was reared in the Roman Catholic faith, according to Mr. Newman."

...[Following Samuel's death], Elizabeth lost little time acquiring a third husband, and by 6 November 1705, she had married John Hanson. On that date, John Hanson and Elizabeth, and Samuel Luckett, her son, 'executors of Samuel Luckett, deceased...' rendered an account to the Perogative Court of Charles County.
'At the fall session of the County Court the Grand Jury with John Beale as foreman, indicted Nicholas Gulick, a Romanist priest, for "marrying John Hanson and the widow Luckett contrary to law." Likewise, John Hanson and Elizabeth, his wife, were indicted "for being & Suffering the ___ to marry."'
There are no known descendants of Elizabeth Hussey and John Gardiner who was a staunch Roman Catholic; Samuel Luckett, her second husband subscribed to the Church of England; and the third, John Hanson, was also of the Church of England. There were four children from this third marriage and all four of these children were reared within the Catholic Church."

These were difficult religious times dating back over 150 years to the reign of Henry VIII. Though the above commentaries make no mention or speculation of Elizabeth's true faith, it seems likely she was a closet Catholic. Her parents were Catholic, her first husband was Catholic, she was married to her third husband by a Catholic priest, and she reared the children from her first husband as Catholics. The only period she appears to follow the Church of England is during her marriage to Samuel Luckett. It is probably no coincidence that Thomas Hussey Luckett, a Catholic, was the only son of Samuel and Elizabeth's children to be named in the will of Elizabeth's father.

At the 1705 fall session of the County Court the grand jury, with JohnBeale as foreman, indicted Nicholas Gulick, a Romanist priest, for"marrying John Hanson and the widdow Luckett contrary to Law". Likewise,John Hanson and Elizabeth his wife were indicted "for being and sufferingthe . . . to marry".

The first husband of Elizabeth Hussey was a member of a staunch RomanCatholic family, but Samuel Luckett was not and furthermore was notconverted to her faith, yet there is every evidence that her four Luckettsons were all raised under the Catholic banner. Her third husband was ofa family as staunch in their support of the Church of England as theGardiners were of Rome, yet one sees a scion being married by a Romanpriest. And their four Hanson children were raised under the dogma ofRome.
====================================
FROM: http://www.familypast.com/Luckett_Hussey_Research.htm
Elizabeth's father, Thomas Hussey, entered the Province as an indenture,but was styled Gent. This indicates that he was "a scion of the Englishgentry". His signature is found on documents which proves that he waseducated --an accomplishment not always attributable to many of the earlysettlers. He became one of the interesting characters of the early daysand once wrote to Lord Baltimore that he had been robbed by the Indians"of alle but the clothes on my bodye". He contracted numerous marriages,and while it is not clear whether he professed the Roman or Anglicanfaith, it is known that his second wife was a Catholic, the religionwhich was imparted to their two daughters. Source: The Lucketts ofPortobacco, MD.

Thomas Hussey died at the beginning of the eighteenth century, and by hiswill, proved October 14, 1700, he devised his grandson and namesake,Thomas Hussey Luckett, 1,310 acres of land at Chingamucon (Chicamuxen)which lay in Durham Parish, the western-most portion of the county.

Elizabeth was a Roman Catholic, as was her mother, and all four Luckett sons were brought up in the Catholic faith.
