Notes

Origin

George was definitely not the oldest child after the 1641 marriage of his parents (that was his sister Mildred).[2] Neither was he the oldest son (that was his brother Robert).[3] Therefore, George was born sometime between 1644 and 1654; splitting the difference for this profile at 1650. This date is a guess, please use it with caution.

The Bay Mare

In 1665, Governor Berkeley gave George a bay mare.[1]

Death and Legacy

George died in 1686. (?)
