 General Notes:
George was a Captain in George Gouldsmith's Company. He later married his daughter. He was a Colonel in 1681 who commanded the "foote" as well a Justice. In 1685, he met with Indian leaders at his home at the head of the bay to help reduce danger from them. He gave each Indian a "match coat". In the tax lists of 1695, he had 10 tithes - Benjamin Wells, Ralph William, John English, Philemon Runegam and 5 slaves.
George was in his father's will. He wrote his own will on Feb. 20, 1695 in Baltimore Co., MD and it was probated in that same year.
He and his wife had at least five children. He was the only brother in 1671 who had had a male heir and therefore received land from Richard Jr. at his death. (C-637)
George married Blanche GOLDSMYTH about 1667. (Blanche GOLDSMYTH died about 1704.)
