Individual Details
Thomas Hussey
(Abt, 1620 - October, 1700)
"Although Thomas Hussey entered the Province as an indenture, he was styled Gent., indicating in that day that he was a scion of the English gentry. His signature is found on documents which prove that he was educated in letters--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, Harry LinnWright, 1938.)
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.
