• Notes

  He died October 13, 1740, and was buried the 15th in Christ Church Ground, at Fifth and Arch Streets. The following obituary notice of him appeared in The Pennsylvania Gazette of the current week: "Philadelphia. Last Monday Evening died, after a long Indisposition, Mr. George McCall, a considerable Merchant of this City, who in his Dealings justly acquired the Character of an honest, sincere, disinterested, worthy Man; and with these good qualifications, better known to his Intimates and Relations, to be a warm Friend, a tender Husband, an affectionate Father, and a kind Master, whom he has left in the utmost Concern, all sensible of their irreparable Loss." Mrs. McCall survived her husband, and was buried in Christ Church Ground January 16, 1746-7. Portraits of Mr. and Mrs. McCall, painted, it is believed, by Hesselius, were in the possession of the late Hon. Peter McCall, of Philadelphia; they show much talent on the part of the artist, and, particularly in that of Mrs. McCall, display peculiar elegance of carriage and dress on the part of the subjects. Mr. and Mrs. McCall had fourteen children. Catharine, m. John Inglis.; Jasper, m. Magdalen Kollock.; Anne, b. April 7,1720; m. Samuel McCall.; Samuel, b.
