Biography
George Lawson was born in 1598, and educated at Puritan Emmanuel College, Cambridge. Lawson was a protégé of William Laud.Шаблон:Sfn
Lawson was a supporter of the parliament, and accordingly retained his rectory during the Commonwealth.Шаблон:Sfn
Lawson wrote to Baxter on the appearance of the latter's Aphorismes of Justification, 1649, and Baxter valued his criticisms; "especially", he writes, "his instigating me to the study of politicks [...] did prove a singular benefit to me". Baxter says that he had seen in manuscript arguments by Lawson in favour of taking the engagement.Шаблон:Sfn
He became rector of More, Shropshire, before 22 April 1686. His religious views inclined to Arminianism. He was buried at More 12 July 1678.Шаблон:Sfn
Lawson, who was certainly not a Yorkshireman, must be distinguished from George Lawson (1606–1670) of Moreby, son of George Lawson of Poppleton, Yorkshire, who became rector of Eykring, Northamptonshire, and who may be identical with the George Lawson who was ejected as a royalist from the vicarage of Mears Ashby, Northamptonshire, by the parliamentarians (Walker, Attempt, ii. 296), and then became schoolmaster at Houghton Conquest, Bedfordshire.Шаблон:Sfn
