George Griswold-1557


George married secondly about 1616, Dorothy James, by whom he had two sons, Matthew and Thomas, both of whom immigrated to the New World. On 12 November 1616, George purchased from Hugh Underhill and his sister Lettice with her husband, a cottage and garden at Kenilworth, Warwickshire. The transaction was probably made upon the occasion of his second marriage, and may be an indication that his second wife was a relation of the Underhills. The possibility of such a connection is further enhanced by the recollection of Edward's son Geogre, in a deposition taken 9 May 1700 stating that as a young boy he had lived with his father, Edward, in Kenilworth, Warwickshire, and had heard that the house they lived in belonged to Edward's brother, Matthew. If George had settled the property upon his second wife at the time of their marriage, it would have become the property of her oldest son, Matthew, at her death. If both parents had died, Matthew may have been under Edward's guardianship.
