Daniel Luttrell was born the grandson of William Luttrell of Cappakeel House, Monasterevin
Co.Queens (now in Co.Laois) Ireland.
The following account appeared in the Geelong Advertiser, 1868.
A most distressing case of suicide occured in Chilwell, a little before midnight of Thurday.
The Inquest held at the Cremorne Hotel in Pakington St.Chilwell before a Jury of 12 men, returned a verdict
of Suicide while suffering from Temporary Insanity, which he had shown occasionally for the previous 7 or 8 months.
It is suspected that Daniels brother, James, also served in the Royal Irish Constabulary, in Leitrim.
Prior to Daniels death, his sister-in-law (Alice Corry) lived with the Luttrells in Marshall St.
Mary Luttrell was found dead on the footpath in Albany Rd.Toorak, Melbourne about 8.30 pm on Saturday, 27 Feb.1897.

Mary married Daniel Luttrell prior to emigrating to Australia (1853/1854).
A Catholic by Religion, he joined (15 Jun.1841) the Royal Irish Constabulary at the age of 19 years,
as a Sub Constable (No.8598).
He was 5 ft.7 inches in height.
Transferred to Co.Clare, this is were he would have meet his future wife, Mary Corry.
Daniel resigned from the Constabulary on 15 Sept.1853 and was unmarried at the time.
I can find no entry in the Shipping Records for their arrival in Australia.
It is unknown whether Marys sister (Alice Corry), later to marry William Hartley Budd 1842-1912
accompanied the couple to Australia.
In Australia, Daniel joined the Victorian Police Force.
On 9 Sept.1854 he was appointed a Constable (No.1591).
He was described as Fresh in Completion, Hair Light, Blue Eyes and 5ft.8ins. in Height.
Daniel appears to not have adjusted well to Police Life in Australia.
On the 7 Sept.1854 he was found off the beat while on duty and cautioned.
On the 28 Mar.1855 he was found absent without leave at the races and fined 10 shillings.
On the 24 Dec.1855 he was again found absent from his beat and fined 10 shillings.
On the 16 Jan.1856 he was insolent to a Sergeant and fined 10 shillings.
On the 2 May 1856 he was found drunk while on duty and assualted a Sergeant and imprisioned for 1 month.
In a 1858 Street Directory of Chilwell, Daniel is recorded as being at the 8th. house from Pakington St.on the
West Side of Marshall St.and Occupation a Carpenter.
Later he worked for Mr.Belcher as a Carrier and appears to have hopped on the Water Wagon,
joining the Highton division of the Sons of Temperance. (their Temple is at Ceres and is used today as an Art Gallery).
Tragedy was to strike about 11 pm Thursday on 2 Oct.1868, Daniel went into the backyard of his
house in Marshall St.and committed Suicide by cutting his throat with a Kitchen Knife.
The name of the man who committed the rash act was Daniel Luttrell, who some years ago was in the constabulary, but has lately been in the employment of Mr.Belcher.
He was a most temperate man, and lived very comfortably with his wife in Marshall-street, but for the last seven or eight months his spirits have been very much
depressed, and occasionally he showed tokens of being of unsound mind.
On Thursday night he was more than usually desponding, and some time after eleven oclock he left the room. for the purpose,as he told his wife of going to the water-closet.
His wife hearing some noise shortly afterwards,went to him, and finding him as she thought suffering from weakness proceeded to get him some water. which, having brought
to him she found that he had fallen a little forward, and observed blood flowing from his throat.
She screamed. and her husband then ran into the yard followed by his wife, who struggled with him to get a table knife he held in his hand out of his possession,
but without success, and the rash man drew it several time across his throat and fell dead in the yard.
An inquest was held upon the body yesterday, when the jury returned a verdict to the effect that the deceased committed suicide while suffering from temporary insanity.
The funeral will take place to-day, and will be attended by the Highton division of the Sons of Temerance, of which body the deceased was a member.
He was buried in unconcrecated ground in the Geelong East Cemetery.
Daniel appears to have at least four Siblings:
m.Sarah SCOTT ???
m.1854, Michael HALL, Lea Parish.
m.New York,
Children - James & Ella (m.LUCAS).
It appears Daniels fathers sister, Maria, married Pat DUNGAN of Feighcullen in Allen Parish, Co.Kildare in 1839.
Alice married William Hartley Budd (1842-1912) on 23 Jul.1867 at Geelong.
Witnesses were John Donaghy of Donaghy RopeWorks and Johns future wife, Norah Darcy.
It is unknown how W.H.Budd meet Alice as at the time he was working as a Sawyer at Lilydale, east of Melbourne.
The Budds appear to have lived with the Luttrells until the birth of Twins, Edwin Hartley Budd and
Alfred William Budd on 27 Jul.1868, returning to Wallan shortly before the suicide of Daniel.
Mary Luttrell was a Mid-Wife.
She had been visiting a friend in Toorak, and was returning home at 35 Elizabeth St.Kensington.
At the time Marys daughter, Mary Ann, was living with her.
The following article appeared in the Age Newspaper, Monday, 1 Mar.1897.
Mr.William Scott, of High-street, Malvern, discovered the body, and at once gave information to the police.
An inquest will be held to-day at the Morgue.
Inquiries made by the police show that Mrs.Luttrell, who was 61 years of age, resided at 35 Elizabeth-street, Kensington.
On Saturday afternoon she had been visiting a married daughter in Toorak, and left the latters home at 7.30 p.m.
For some weeks past she had been complaining of pains in the chest, and she was believed to have suffered from a weak heart.
There are no marks of voilence on the body, nor is there any suspicion of foul play.
She had been staying with Jane Brewster, a cook at the residence, Orma, of Westly Hall, Boundary Rd.Toorak, who at the time was in Sydney.
Her son, Thomas, was resident at the Royal Hotel, Footscray.
The two daughters never married and Daniel married a widow, Catherine CUNNINGHAM (6 Jan.1892) in Melbourne,
Catherine having a large family.
The following Wedding notice appeared in the Argus, 1892.
