Levin Luckett

(December 20, 1762 - 1829)

"Levin Luckett, son of William and Charity (Middleton) Luckett, was born December 20, 1762, in the lower district of Frederick County, Maryland. At maturity he settled in Loudon County, Virginia, where he married Letitia, the daughter of Francis and Frances (Dade) Peyton. Eleven children were born to this union, but the most outstanding were Alfred (q.v.) and Levin, Jr.

"At the first available census for Virginia, that is, 1810, Levin Luckett was the only member of his family, with a residence in Loudon County. His plantation was stocked with twenty-one slaves.

"On January 4, 1814, he conveyed to Andrew Clopper, of Baltimore County, Maryland, "Willet's Delay", which had been deeded him by Griffith Willet. Lettice Luckett, his wife, acknowledged the sale. On May 16, same year, he purchased from Charles Tyler, Jr., and Christian his wife land lying in Fauquier County. On December 26, 1821, he and his wife conveyed a lot in Middleburg, Virginia, to Reinard Mannhouse.

"Levin Luckett died in Loudon County during 1829." (The Lucketts of Portobacco, by Harry Wright Newman, 1938.)
