About George Churchill
Admiral of the Blue George Churchill was a Royal Navy officer and politician who served as a Lord Commissioner of the Admiralty from 1699 to 1702 and sat on the Lord High Admirals Council from 1702 to 1708. He was Member of Parliament for St Albans from 1685 to 1708, then Portsmouth from 1708 until his death in 1710. While considered by some an effective administrator, he achieved high office through Prince George of Denmark, husband of Queen Anne. He died in May 1710 and was buried in Westminster Abbey, next to his sister Arabella. He never married but left the bulk of his property to his illegitimate son, George Churchill (1687–1753).
