A royal licence to make a settlement for her marriage to John de Vere was dated 24 July 1341,[1][2][7] so they probably married soon after that. John de Vere may have been only about 6 at the time.[8] They had no children. In 1349 Edward III granted them an annuity of £200. John de Vere died before 23 June 1350.[1][2][8]
Elizabeth married, her second husband being Andrew Luttrell.[1][2] They married soon after 28 June 1359, when Edward III granted her husband an annuity of £200 in expectation of their marriage.[8][9] They had two sons:
Edward III gave them an annuity of £200 in 1359.[1][2]
In 1361 Elizabeth and her husband went on pilgrimage to Santiago da Compostella.[1][2] Edward III ordered a ship to be made available to them "for their passage and the passage of 24 persons, men and women, and 24 horses of their company."[10]
Elizabeth was an attendant on Edward the Black Prince and his wife.[1][2]
In 1373 Elizabeth acquired the reversion of some manors in Suffolk.[1][2]
In 1377 the reversion of Whitchurch, Buckinghamshire (a de Vere property) passed to Elizabeth following the death of her sister-in-law Elizabeth, Lady Mowbray.[11] On 20 November that year she paid Joan de Mohun, widow of John de Mohun, 5000 marks for the reversion of Dunster Castle and the manors of Carhampton and Minehead, Somerset.[1][2][12]
In 1381 Elizabeth was confirmed by Richard II in the right to the annuity of £200 granted to her and her husbands, "in consideration of her having survived her husband and long served the king's father and mother."[13] On 4 December 1391 Richard II granted her the custody and marriage of Hugh Hemenale, white father William had died while he was still under age.[14]
Elizabeth died on 7 August 1395[8] at Bermondsey, Surrey. She was buried at St Nicholas's, Exeter, Devon.[1][2][15] On 10 August 1395 Edmund Stafford, Bishop of Exeter, "ordered prayers for the deceased ladies Margaret Cobham and Elizabeth Loterell, sisters of the primate William Courtney, archbishop of Canterbury... To encourage the faithful to pray for their departed souls, he grants an indulgence for forty days."[16]
Research Notes
Weaver's edition of the Somerset Visitations has a muddled pedigree for the Luttrell family, and is not reliable on it. It lists a daughter for Elizabeth by her second marriage: Elizabeth Luttrell, stated to have married James Stratton of Weston (which may be intended to be Weston super Mare, Somerset).[4] This may be a confusion with Elizabeth's granddaughter Elizabeth Luttrell, who married William Harleston and John Stratton.[1][2]
