Sir George More (28 November 1553 – 16 October 1632)[1] was an English courtier and politician who sat in the House of Commons at various times between 1584 and 1625.
Early life
More was the son of Sir William More of Loseley Park, Surrey and his second wife, Margaret Daniell, daughter of Ralph Daniell of Swaffham, Norfolk.[2]
He was educated at the Royal Grammar School, Guildford and Corpus Christi College, Oxford.[3] He left Oxford after failing his academic exercises, and was admitted to Inner Temple in 1574. He was a Justice of the Peace for Surrey and Sussex and Deputy Lieutenant for Surrey.[4]
Career
In 1584, More was elected Member of Parliament for Guildford and was re-elected MP for Guildford in 1586 and 1589.[5] He was provost marshal for Surrey in 1589.[4] In 1593, he was MP for Guildford again. He was High Sheriff of Surrey and Sussex in 1596.[4] In 1597, he was elected MP for Surrey.[5] He was knighted in February 1598.[6] From 23 June 1601 to 1613, he was Chamberlain of the Receipt in the Exchequer.[4] He was re-elected MP for Surrey in 1601. He was re-elected MP for Guildford in 1604 and for Surrey in 1614.[5] From 1615 to 1617, he was Lieutenant of the Tower of London. He was elected MP for Surrey again in 1621. In 1624 he was elected MP for Guildford and was elected MP for Surrey again in 1625.[5]
Among his other roles, More was treasurer and receiver general to James I's son, Henry, Prince of Wales, and Chancellor of the Order of the Garter. He was subsidy and loan commissioner, muster commissioner, and commissioner for recusants and seminaries for Surrey. He was a verderer of Windsor Forest and constable of Farnham Castle.[4]
In April 1607 the Earl of Dorset wrote to More hoping he could influence the Countess of Cumberland to arrange the marriage of her daughter Lady Anne Clifford to his grandson Richard Sackville.[7]
