    • Biography
      2nd wife of Samuel Luckett;
      Elizabeth (Porter) Hussey was born in 1667[1] in Port Tobacco, Maryland, to Johanna (Joan) Porter - HUSSEY, age 35, and Thomas Hussey, age 32. (Although Thomas Hussey entered the Province as an indenture, he was styled Gent.)

      Shortly after November 24, 1683, Samuel Luckett, of Port Tobacco, married the young and childless widow of John Gardiner - a scion of an early and prominent Roman Catholic family.

      Elizabeth HUSSEY was the daughter and co-heiress of Thomas Hussey, Gent., and his second wife Johanna.

      Her late husband Thomas willed land for his wife as "Smoots Chance"

      Elizabeth lost but little time in acquiring a third husband, and by November 6, 1705, she had married John Hanson. On that date, the latter, his wife Elizabeth, and Samuel Luckett "executors of Samuel Luckett, deceased" rendered an account to the Perogative Court. At the 1704 fall session of the County Court the grand jury, with John Beale as foreman, indicted Nicholas Gulick, a Romanist priest, for "marrying John Hanson and the widow Luckett contrary to the Law". Likewise, John Hanson and Elizabeth his wife were indicted "for being and suffering the ... to marry".

      Elizabeth died in Charles County Maryland in 1747.[1]

      (The first husband of Elizabeth Hussy was a member of a staunch Roman Catholic family, but Samuel Luckett was not and furthermore was not converted to her faith, yet there is every evidence that her four Luckett sons were all raised under the Catholic banner. Her third husband was of a family as staunch in support of the Church of England as the Gardiners were or Rome, yet one sees a scion being married by a Roman priest. And their four Hanson children were raised under the dogma of Rome. )
