George Finch was the second son of George Finch and Constance Hornby. He was born in 1692 and baptised at St Olave's Church, Hart Street, London. The family acquired Valentines in Essex when George was 10 years old but his father died in 1710 after a long and painful illness.
George married in 1721 but his wife died in 1725. They had two daughters but one died in infancy.
In 1726 George married Mary Garret at Stifford Church. They had three daughters and two sons, but neither son survived so George's estate went back to the male line [his younger brothers?] leaving Mary with limited income after he died.
