Jörg vom Haus Jacob ("George of the House of Jacob"; also Georg Cajacob), commonly known as George Blaurock^[1] (c. 1491 – September 6, 1529), was an Anabaptist leader and evangelist. Along with Conrad Grebel and Felix Manz, he was a co-founder of the Swiss Brethren in Zürich, and thereby one of the founders of Anabaptism.

^ The nickname Blaurock means blue coat. He was also nicknamed der starke Jörg meaning Strong George.
