Posted on: Amherst County Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/genbbs.cgi/USA/Va/Amherst/10761 Surname: LUTTRELL ------------------------- Bette, I'm researching Luttrell's but this isn't my direct line. I had the information below in my database (also not proven). Have you checked in Betetourt Co., VA for a Will for Richard Jr. around 1840? It might list his children's names. Or a deed where Richard might have given/sold land to Robert? If you can show your Robert living on a piece of land formerly owned by Richard, Jr., that would most probably be the closest proof you'll be able to find. I also know that on later relatives (after 1850), I was able to write to the churches and they had baptism data of children listing their parents. But I don't know if there would be much available for 1804 when Robert was born. Good Luck, Marcine Lohman (Amelung) celticlady@brick.net Richard Luttrell, Jr. was born Bet. 1761 - 1763 in Westmoreland County, Virginia, and died September 03, 1840 in Betetourt County, Virginia.
