Earl of Carhampton
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
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.
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 , Co. Dublin.
Carhampton is a village about one mile from Dunster, Somerset.
