George A. Blauvelt

George Alanson Blauvelt (November 11, 1866 – October 16, 1924) was an American lawyer and politician from New York.

Life
He was born in Ramapo, New York, to John Lewis Blauvelt and Lucinda (née Gurnee) Blauvelt. He attended Mt. Chappaqua Institute and graduated from Cornell University in 1890, and from Columbia Law School in 1892.

In 1897, he was sued by William R. Thompson for $50,000 in damages, because Blauvelt had "alienated Thompson's wife's affections".

Blauvelt was a member of the New York State Assembly (Rockland County) in 1911 and 1912, and of the New York State Senate (23rd District) in 1913 and 1914.

In September 1914, he opened a law firm in Manhattan with the New York attorney general, Thomas Carmody, and deputy attorney general, Joseph A. Kellogg, who both had just resigned, but left the firm in October 1915. He was a delegate to the New York State Constitutional Convention of 1915.

He was a trustee of Cornell University from 1919 until his death, on October 16, 1924, at his home in Monsey, New York, of pneumonia.
