Individual Details

Elizabeth Hussey

(Abt, 1669 - Abt, 1747)

"Elizabeth Hussey was a Roman Catholic, as was her mother, and all four Luckett sons were brought up in the Catholic faith. Elizabeth's father, Thomas Hussey, entered the Province as an indenture, but was styled Gent. This indicates that he was "a scion of the English gentry." His signature is found on documents which proves that he was educated - an accomplishment not always attributable to many of the early settlers. He became one of the interesting characters of the early days and 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 Anglican faith, it is known that his second wife was a Catholic, the religion which was imparted to their two daughters." (The Lucketts of Portobacco, Maryland).

Thomas Hussey died at the beginning of the eighteenth century, and by his will, 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.
