Abstract:
A system of seals was implemented by the British in an effort to deal with an increasingly more complex system of government in the colonies. In 1729, plans were drawn for designing and implementing the state's own seal and by 1731 Governor George Burrington put it into formal use. The seal changed in 1760 after the death of King George II and the succession of King George III ascended on October 25, 1760.
