George's wives
Just one year after Margaret’s death in 1675, George married Dorothea Shirley, who was the daughter of Lady Catherine and Sir Robert Shirley and they had two daughters.
After Dorothea died in 1680, he married Catherine Vernon who was just 18 at the time, George was 44. It was another advantageous marriage and gave George access to the business acumen of her London based merchant family. It was their son, Henry who inherited Sudbury upon George’s death in 1702.
