Sir George Shiffner, 1st Baronet (17 November 1762 – 3 February 1842), was a British politician.
Shiffner was held in such high esteem locally that he was considered as a Tory candidate for Sussex in the 1807 election.
Fuller was becoming increasingly unpopular because of his outspoken defence of slavery in the colonies.
Shiffner declined the offer and successfully ran as MP for Lewes where he sat from 1812 to 1826.
[1] Coombe Place is at Offham in the parish of Hamsey, East Sussex, approximately three miles (5 km) north of Lewes.
