John P Luttrell

John, son of John Luttrell and Catherine Thomas, was born about 1733 in Westmoreland County, Virginia Colony.

He was killed in battle about February 1782.

John's will was written 20 March 1775 in Orange County, North Carolina. It was proved at the February 1782 Court in Orange County, North Carolina.

One third of the lands purchased together with Richard Henderson (Transylvania purchase) is left to John's three brothers, Hugh, Thomas and William.

The residue is left to wife Susannah (Hart) Luttrell and the child she was thought to be pregnant with at the time. If she is not pregnant, or the child does not live to age twenty-one, then the residue of John's estate is left to Susannah Luttrell.

There is no record of the birth of this child; it is thought to have been stillborn.

The Battle of Lindley's Mill (also known as the Battle of Cane Creek) took place in Orange County, North Carolina (now in Alamance County), on September 13, 1781, during the American Revolutionary War.

The battle took its name from a mill that sat at the site of the battle on Cane Creek, which sat along a road connecting what was then the temporary state capital, Hillsborough, with Wilmington, North Carolina.
