Sir George Champion (1713-1754) of St Clement's Lane, London, and Baulking, Berkshire (now Oxfordshire), was an English merchant and politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1734 to 1741.
He was baptised on 29 November 1713 at St Bride's, Fleet Street, London, the son of George Champion (born 1687) of Uffington, Berkshire and his wife Catherine Bould.
As the senior alderman below the chair, Champion would have expected to be chosen as Lord Mayor of London under the strict rotation that had prevailed for the previous 30 years.
[3] However, when he stood for the office of lord mayor, he was defeated on a show of hands by a great majority.
Champion made a second marriage on 27 February 1744, to Mrs Jones, a widow of Moulsford, Berkshire.
