Biography

George was born in 1553.

He died in 1608.

Research Notes

Moody suggested that Dorothy (Paulet) Phillips (abt.1586-abt.1612) who married Sir Thomas Phillips was the daughter of George Paulet, but this seems unlikely because he also mentions Dorothy had a sister Margery.[1] Wikipedia suggests the daughter's name was Frances (with no source).[2]

George Paulet the father may have had two sons called George by different mothers. There were also George, son of Lord Thomas Paulet of Melplash, Dorset and George, brother of Amias Paulet and thus son of Sir Hugh Paulet. It is not certain which was the MP for Bridport. [3]

Victoria County History of Hampshire notes the north altar tomb in Crondall Parish Church, photo viewable at findagrave.com: "The north altar tomb is that of Sir George Paulet of Crondall, younger brother of the first Marquess of Winchester. . . It is a recessed altar tomb. . . A shield of Paulet quartering Roos, Poynings, St. John, Delamere, Hussey, Hooke, Treby, and Delamere impaling Hampden quartering Sidney, Popham and St, Martin, commemorates Barbara Hampden, Sir George's second wife. * * *

Panel 2. 'Barbara and George [Paulet]...of thys Barbara he had issue ij sonnes and ii daughters, her lyfe God took to his greate goodness the [y]eare of our lord God 1552." ~~

I think notes in this profile conflate two or even three different people, as do the BHO, wikipedia and findagrave references.

Looking at Burke's peerage entries for the Marquess of Winchester https://archive.org/details/b3136410x/page/2103/mode/2up we get the following

1 - Sir George of Crundall, son of Sir John Paulet, brother of William 1st marqess of Winchester, married 3 wives, died 1558 leaving 5 sons and 5 daughters. This is George (Paulet) Poulett (abt.1485-1558) and is the Sir George whose tomb in Crondall parish church is described in the VCH

2 - Sir George, son of Sir George above and Elizabeth (Windsor) Scrope (1528-aft.1600). Does not currently have a profile

3 - Sir George, son of John Paulet 2nd Marquess of Winchester, governor of Londonderry, murdered in 1608. This profile. Described in DNB https://archive.org/details/dictionaryofnati44stepuoft/page/86/mode/2up

Hi Peter,

Burke's Peerage and other volumes written by John Burke or later members of his family are considered by WikiTree's England Project to be Unreliable Sources or 'Actually Not Sources At All'.

I agree, I was just using that record to identify the three Georges.

I wanted to be able to show that the George Paulet on the tombstone in the research notes was from George (Paulet) Poulett (abt.1485-1558)

On further investigation I see the DNB has changed from the version I found originally which stated that the George involved in the Derry uprising was the second son of John, second marquis of Winchester https://archive.org/details/dictionaryofnati44stepuoft/page/86/mode/2up and more recently states he was the son of George, brother of the first marquis https://archive.org/details/isbn_0198613938/page/155/mode/2up

I will remove the additions I had made in the biography

Just wondering, could it be possible that Georges birth-date could be 1535 rather than 1553, given the death of his mother as 1552, and the birth of his son 1565 ?? not with standing his wifes birth-date as 1543 (may often be younger rather than older) ?

Sir George Paulet (1490-1558) is the father of the Sir George Paulet killed at Derry on 18 April 1608, by his 3rd wife, Elizabeth Windsor (by whom he had 3 sons and 2 daughters). Funerary monument at All Saints, Crondall, can be seen at findagrave.com However, Nina Green has noted that Elizabeth Windsor's 1st husband, Henry Sandys, did not die until c1555. (See PCC will of William Windsor, TNA PROB 11/42A/9/) The Sir George Paulet who died in 1558 was the 2ndd husband of Elizabeth Windsor, while her 3rd husband was Ralph Scrope (d. 28 October 1572) of Hambleton, Buckinghamshire.

upon saving, received the following automated warning:
Warning: Check the data.
  • A mother's death date (Willoughby-886 died 4 Apr 1552) should not be before one of her children's birth dates (Paulet-114 born 1553).

sources? Wikipedia says George who died in 1608 in Ireland was son of George (not John).

See Paulet-149 and also wikipedia (I'm not a big fan of Wikipedia, but the article seems well sourced).

Paulet-150 and Paulet-114 appear to represent the same person because: "brothers"... not enough info for Paulet-150 to support the death date given or that there were two sons named George. Please merge. Thanks!
