Samuel Luccock

Samuel Luccock of Cambridge was a Dissenter and attendant at St. Andrew’s Street, where he became a close friend of Robert Hall; he also subscribed to Flower’s edition of Habakkuk Crabb’s Sermons in 1796.  He had several daughters apparently, for one married in April 1797 and another one in November 1801 (Cambridge Intelligencer 29 April 1797, 7 November 1801). Samuel Luccock’s relation, Thomas Toller Luccock of Leeds, visited Cambridge frequently and was a political reformer and friend of Flower.  Thomas Luccock was present with Flower, Robert Hall, and Henry Gunning during the attack by the mob on Mrs. Jennings’s house in Bridge Street after a political meeting of the freeholders of Cambridge on 4 April 1797 (Cambridge Intelligencer 29 April 1797). Thomas Luccock married the daughter of the well-known Liverpool Baptist minister, Samuel Medley. See also John Greene, Reminiscences of the Rev. Robert Hall, A. M., late of Bristol, and Sketches of his Sermons preached at Cambridge prior to 1806 (London: Frederick Westley and A. H. Davis, 2nd.  ed., 1834), xii-xiv.
