H. A. Doubleday: Howard de Walden (London: The St. Catherine Press, Ltd., 1926), pp. 676-7〕 George is first mentioned by name in 1441 when the lands which later became part of the Earldom were settled on him and his heirs.〔''The records of Aboyne MCCXXX-MDCLXXXI'', ed. Charles Gordon Huntly (Aberdeen: The New Spalding Club, 1894), p. 396〕 George was almost certainly born shortly before this time, as his parents married before 18 March 1439–40.〔George Edward Cokayne, ''The Complete Peerage; or, a History of the House of Lords and all its members from the earliest times'', Vol. VI, eds. H. A. Doubleday: Howard de Walden (London: The St. Catherine Press, Ltd., 1926), p. 676〕
In his contract with Elizabeth Dunbar, Countess of Moray, dated 20 May 1455 he is styled the Master of Huntley.〔''The Scots Peerage, Founded on Wood's Edition of Sir Robert Douglas's Peerage of Scotland'', ed. James Balfour Paul, Vol. IV (Edinburgh: David Douglas, 1907), p. 526〕 He is addressed as "Sir George Seton, knight", in a royal precept dated 7 March 1456–7 while in a crown charter dated a year later he uses the name of Gordon for the first time indicating he had assumed that surname.〔 As George, Lord Gordon, he was keeper of the castles of Kildrummy, Kindrochat and Inverness.〔 He succeeded his father as Earl of Huntly .〔
Shortly after becoming Earl of Huntly he was involved with the Earl of Ross in a private war in which the king, James III of Scotland interceded. Ross was charged with treason, but after refusing a summons from the king, was outlawed.〔''The Scots Peerage, Founded on Wood's Edition of Sir Robert Douglas's Peerage of Scotland'', ed. James Balfour Paul, Vol. IV (Edinburgh: David Douglas, 1907), pp. 526-7〕 One of the expeditions sent against the errant Earl of Ross was led by Alexander and after he captured Dingwall Castle and pressed his army into Lochaber, Ross relented and sought pardon for his actions from the king.〔''The records of Aboyne MCCXXX-MDCLXXXI'', ed. Charles Gordon Huntly (Aberdeen: The New Spalding Club, 1894), p. 401〕 In 1479 he was justiciary north of the River Forth, one of his primary duties was the suppression of feuds between Highland clans.〔 In 1497 George Gordon was appointed High Chancellor of Scotland, the honor probably bestowed at the same time his daughter Catherine married Perkin Warbeck, an adventurer in favor with King James IV of Scotland.〔''The records of Aboyne MCCXXX-MDCLXXXI'', ed. Charles Gordon Huntly (Aberdeen: The New Spalding Club, 1894), p. 409〕 George was Chancellor until 1500.〔''The Scots Peerage, Founded on Wood's Edition of Sir Robert Douglas's Peerage of Scotland'', ed.
