Source for the following. Dictionary of National Biography RAWDON, Sir GEORGE (1604-1684), first Baronet of Moira, born in November 1604 at Rawdon Yorkshire was the only son of Francis Rawdon (1851?-1686) of Rawdon Hall near Leeds. His mother, Dorothy, daughter of William Aldborough, was married in 1608 and died 1660. George went to court at the end of James 1’s of the beginning of Charles 1’s reign, and became private secretary to Secretary Conway. In 1825 [??? presumably 1625] he was sent to the Hague on business connected with Charles’s promised subsidy to the protestant allies. After Conway’s death, in 1631, Rawdon was attached to Conway’s son, the second Viscount Conway, who had a large estate in Down.
The following three extracts have been taken from the following link which his quite long. https://www.ancestry.co.uk/imageviewer/collections/1981/images/31205_Vol16-00782?pId=45525
When the Irish rebellion broke out on 23 October 1641, Rawdon was in London. He posted down to Scotland, crossed to Bangor and reached Lisburn on 27 Nov. He found the town held by Sir Arthur Tyringham, with Lord Conway’s troop and some badly armed raw levies. Sir Phelim O,Neill came next morning, but was twice beaten off with great loss. In their retreat the Irish burned Brookhill with Conway’s library in it and much property belonging to Rawdon, who was wounded and had a horse shot under him. (Ulster Journal, i.242;Warr of Ireland, p.13).
In May 1665 he was created a baronet, and in the following year received large grants of land, especially the forfeited estate of the O’Laverys in Down, and other property in Dublin, Louth, and Meath. These rewards were for service done before June 1649. He built the town of Moira in Co Down, which was created a manor and filled it with ‘comfortable protestants.’ About this time Rawdon was active in obtaining the help of Valentine Greatrakes.
He died in August 1684, and was buried with much pomp at Lisburn
