Overview
George Walsh ( – 12 November 1692) was an English politician, who served as MP for Eye 1680–1681.
Walsh was the third son of William Walsh of Abberley, Worcestershire, and his wife Elizabeth Blount, daughter of Sir George Blount of Sodington, Worcestershire.
He fought for the King in the Civil War, and was appointed a Gentleman of the Privy Chamber in June 1660. He served as a JP in Middlesex 1665–76, and became a freeman of Eye in 1674, his wife having taken a lease for him of the manor at Eye Priory.
He unsuccessfully contested a by-election at Eye in November 1675. In 1676 he was removed as a JP for "abetting an offender and going off the bench".
