Willibald Leo Lütgendorff+
Sohn und Schüler von Jean Mathurin R., dessen Geschäft er fortsetzte und aus der Passage Brady um 1872 in die Rue du Faubourg-Saint-Denis Nr. 60 verlegte. Er machte aus Liebhaberei viele Taschengeigen, die seinen Namen eingebrannt zeigen; auch verwandelte er gerne alte Leiern (Viellen) in eigenartige Lauten und Theorben, die von Nichtkennern gerne gekauft wurden. Aus Liebhaberei beschäftigte er sich ferner auch mit der Anfertigung von Oboen.
