		George Brown (1818-1880) was a Canadian politician and newspaper editor who stood for the principle of majority rule, favored expansion into the West, and gave powerful support to the movement for the federation of British North America.

	George Brown - History of Canada (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Brown, George (1818-1880), journalist and statesman, was born at Alloa, near Edinburgh, Scotland, on November 29, 1818, the son of Peter Brown and Isabella Mackenzie.
		In October, 1864, Brown played a prominent part in the Quebec Conference; but in December, 1865, he resigned from the government, before Confederation was completed, through inability to work in harmony with his colleagues, and particularly with John A. Macdonald, between whom and himself there had been for years a bitter personal enmity.
		As a politician, his actions did not always square with his pretensions; and his editorship of the Globe was, as Goldwin Smith said, "a long reign of literary terror." But sometimes, as in 1864, he was capable of taking really statesmanlike views.

	George Wythe - Classical Lawyer
		George Wythe was of course at the forefront of those leading the way, and his knowledge and intellect stemmed from the classics.
		George Wythe’s father died suddenly in 1729; a tragedy which left the young boy’s family in a state of poverty (Brown, 68), and his education in the hands of his mother.
		What George Wythe accomplished at the dawn of his career, both in the House of Burgesses and as a legal practitioner, brought attention to himself, and consequently the educational background he was known to have possessed.

		George Brown was in the forefront of debate, clearly representing a broader constituency in the west than just his own riding of Kent.
		Brown had looked ultimately toward this larger goal, but he had deemed earlier Conservative advocacy of it to be premature and mainly used as a red herring to evade action on Canada’s own internal constitutional problem.

	George Brown
		It is too curious that George Brown and his group of fellow barristers, Andrews, Cole, and Hitchcock, denied any foreknowledge of the attack on the Gaspee, particularly when such a large meeting of angry men had gathered at the same inn that night to plan the Gaspee's destruction.
		The George Brown born in1703 would be of the right age to have been the Grandfather-in-law to known Gaspee raider Capt. Joseph Tillinghast, and we know that he lived in Providence at the time of the birth of his daughter, Mary in 1733.
		We also note that two sisters of this George Brown, Elizabeth and Herminome, were both successively married to Joseph (son of Elisha) Tillinghast, although this is not the Captain Joseph Tillinghast that was definitely one of the Gaspee raiders.

		A committed socialist and a party rebel, one of George Lansbury's greatest contribution to democratic politics in Britain — almost as gamekeeper turned poacher — was his spirited leadership of the 46 Opposition MPs at Westminster against the serried ranks of the 554 MPs supporting the National Government after the Labour nadir of 1931.
		Family members and politicians, who personally knew George Lansbury and participated in his campaigns in the late 1930s, are an important source for their memories of the Labour pioneer.
