Willibald Leo Lütgendorff+
Er war fürstlicher Hofmusikus und Geigenmacher und vielleicht ein Sohn des Brünner Meisters, wenn nicht identisch mit diesem. Seine Tochter »M. A.« und »C.« erbaten im Jahre 1759 das Recht, die Geigenmacherei ausüben zu dürfen (also wohl das väterliche Geschäft fortzusetzen). 1793 erbat eine derselben die Erlaubniss, das Geschäft verkaufen zu dürfen (kgl. Kreisarchiv Landshut).
