  • Notes 
    • Georg's father died in 1743 when he was 11 years old. In 1747, Timothy Welling was appointed to be his guardian.

      George was a private in a Massachusetts Minute Man unit. He was slain at the Battle of Monmouth by the same cannon ball that killed his kinsman, Captain Edmund Munroe [126].
