==Genealogy== George Augustus was brother to [[Richard Howe|Admiral Richard Howe, 1st Earl Howe, 4th Viscount]] and [[William Howe, 5th Viscount Howe|Sir William Howe, 5th Viscount Howe]]. ''The Family of Hoge'' quotes ''The Encyclopædia Britannica'' as having this to say about the Howes: <blockquote>The friendliness of the brothers, Admiral Richard Howe and General William Howe, to the colonies led to their selection for the command of the British forces in the Revolutionary War. It was thought that they could negotiate a settlement with the American forces.</blockquote>
