George Durell's inclusion in the Shrubland collection is well explained by his marriage to Elizabeth de Sausmarez. His career was apparently short, since he died in 1754. His date of birth is not yet discovered, but perhaps he was born between Philip (1707) and Thomas (1717) --- let's say 1712, so he may only have been about 40-45 when he died.
