Earl of Carhampton

Earl of Carhampton

The title of Earl of Carhampton was created in the Peerage of Ireland in 1785, but became extinct upon the death of the 3rd Earl in 1829. The earls bore the subsidiary titles of "Viscount Carhampton" (1781) and "Baron Irnham" (1768), both in the Peerage of Ireland. In 1829 George IV offered to revive the earldom in favour of Sir Simeon Henry Stuart, 5th Baronet (see Stuart Baronets), son of Sir Simeon Stuart, 4th Baronet , and his wife Lady Frances Maria, daughter of the third Earl. However, the offer was declined.

The Lutrells arrived in England in 1066, with William the Conqueror's army at the Battle of Hastings, acquiring estates as reward for services to the Crown.

The Lutrells were descended from Sir Geoffrey de Luterel of Irnham, Lincolnshire, who served King John in Ireland and who was granted lands near Dublin where he established the village of Luttrellstown.

The three main branches of the family were Luttrell of Irnham, Lincolnshire, (extinct c1418), Luttrell of East Quantockshead, Somerset and later Dunster Castle, Dunster, Somerset, and Luttrell of Luttrellstown Castle, Co. Dublin.

Carhampton is a village about one mile from Dunster, Somerset.
