This profile is part of the Lawson Name Study.
GEORGE BLAKISTON was born on 01 March 1611, Sheriff of Durham, emigrated to Maryland in 1668, died St. Mary's County, Maryland, before 30 September 1669, married BARBARA LAWSON at St. Andrew's, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, 15 October 1638. BARBARA LAWSON was born about 1611. [1]

2. JOSEPH BLAKISTON, buried 14 Oct. 1646[3]
3. SAMUEL BLAKISTON, buried 8 Oct. 1647[4]

9. EBENEZER BLAKISTON, Capt., born 1650, resided in Cecil County, later Kent County, Maryland, died 1709.[8]
Upon the Restoration in England in 1660, George Blakiston's property was confiscated. However, the Corporation of Newcastle granted him £500, as it was cited that "he did many good services for this town." So it was that in 1668, he and his family immigrated to Maryland. The family established themselves in St. Mary's County. His estate was conducted in 30 September 1669 by his son, John.[9]

Hi Donnie; we typically don't replicate a husband's profile text on that of the wife. Do you have any objections to me re-doing the narrative so that it's about Barbara instead of about George?
