History in a Pecan Shell

The town was once a part of the Rocking Chair Ranch.

A school district was formed in 1908 and in 1909 the town was named to honor the wife of the county attorney (Lutie Templeton). The post office opened that same year and discontinued by 1913.

Twenty-five people lived in Lutie in 1933 and the population high water mark was reached in 1941 when 125 people crowded into town.
