I have an Eleanor Shekell buried at Monocacy Cemetery in Beallsville, MD.

http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=39...

She was born on July 21, 1773. She married Robert Willson on October 29, 1798 in Montgomery County, MD. She died on August 21, 1851. They had a daughter named Mary Tillard Douglas Wilson born in 1812.

I doubt this Eleanor could be the same woman as William Cuyler's wife because they married in 1802/03, right?

Iona Helen and William Kenneth Cuyler of Austin, TX 1919

Iona and William are pictured in the February 1919 Comet, yearbook of the February senior graduating class at Austin High School, in Austin, Texas. I'm not kin but thought this might help someone researching the family.

Re: William Clarendon Cuyler - 3rd US Artillery, Savannah GA

RopersFive — 2010-02-18 17:57:19Z

William Clarendon Cuyler was born 3/17/1843 in Savannah, Georgia. He died November 2, 1869 and is buried in Laurel Grove Cemetery. For reasons I don't yet know, he served in the Federal Army in the Civil War - unusual for a member of a prominent Savannah family. He was promoted to 1st Lt. in 1863; then, for "gallant and distinguished service" he was promoted to captain in October 1864; then to major in 1865. He saw action at the Battles of Winchester and Cedar Creek.

Telamon Cuyler

RopersFive — 2010-02-18 17:52:17Z

Ladies and Gents,

I am looking for information about Telamon Cuyler, born in Savannah, Georgia, September 1818 and died in Adairsville, Georgia, June 28, 1853. He was murdered by a J.B. Webster and a T.L. Cox at the railroad depot in Adairsville.

In my search for information about Cuyler I have found alot of the family-related details. What I am most interested in is details regarding his death and the fate of the killers.

I am not related to William Howe Cuyler and his wife Elanor. They however built a cabin/home on a small hill behind our home in Palmyra, NY which is now in Wayne County. There is no longer a standing structure. Major Cuyler was killed at the battle of Black Rock (War of 1812)in what is now Buffalo, NY in 1812. He is buried I believe in the Palmyra Pioneer cemetery. He and Elanor had children and there are still descendents. The last I knew the family even had the cannonball that took the majors life. There is also information about him in the Palmyra Kings Daughters Library files. I am looking for photocopies of any picture (painting or other rendering) of either Major Cuyler or his wife Elanor. Do you know of any ? There is apparently a 'Cuyler scrapbook' with considerable info including a picture taken from an ivory carving of Maj. Cuyler.

The Bible was given to a girl that I know. I have been doing my family tree and knew how inportant the names and dates were. That is all the information that was in the Bible I think. I will go to her house and check for sure. Someone found this Bible in an emty house that he was buying I think.

Cuyler/Winslow Bible ca. 1862

SusieB4711 — 2006-07-25 21:19:46Z

Hello Cuyler researchers! My neighbor found a hardcover Bible print date 1862, in a book store in Buffalo, NY. It has an inscription engraved on the front: Elizabeth Cuyler Winslow, from T.L.C. There are also two pictures on the inside front cover as well as an obituary notice for a Winslow child. If this fits with your family, let me know. My neighbor just thinks it would be cool to have this Bible back with the family it belongs to. [Although she doesn't want any money for it, s/h might be nice.] You can contact me at SusieB4711@msn.com

Re: origion of name

htrump6704 — 2006-07-04 15:07:53Z

According to Ancestry.com...

Cuyler
Dutch: probably a variant of Koole, from a short form of the personal name Nikolaas (see Nicholas). This is a common Dutch name in the Albany area. A variant form of the surname in the Netherlands is Kuilart, suggesting perhaps that these could be occupational names for a potato grower, from kuilen ‘to plant potatoes’ (from kuil ‘pit’, ‘hole’).

Hi again, Ken. My email is: thebestwildangel@yahoo.com. So you say there were 2 Indian children born to van curler? Just curious as take a close look at my grandad Clarence, you can clearly see the indian blood & I've been asked myself, if I've got Indian blood & always answer yes, as Curtis's wife, May Hills claims to be 1/4 Shawnee, but that's another genealogical line I'm pursuing to another dead end. Write me with the info if you can & thank you for all your help. Kathy

Re: Aaron Cuyler

2004-09-23 12:38:27Z

I believe Lucy was the mother of Aaron (b1807).and was the wife of Aaron (Jr) (b1775) Aaron & Lucy had at least 7 sons & 4 daughters I have the namews of 3 males & 2 females.

The information I have Is Arent Van Curler (b1612/1620) established the family line in America.But he had no legitimate childern He apparently had 2 childern 1M &1F by a Indian Squaw.the female was named Tall Eagle I believe The male Benoni (b1652/1663) Van Curler/Corlear established the line as we know it to day?

I have additional informaton if you would like to send me your e Mail address I will thr to copy & send it to you.

I also believ I have a picture of Clarence's Family taken about 1946 which should show your father

Re: Aaron Cuyler

2004-09-22 18:29:24Z

Hey again. been looking all day for anything I could find & nothing still. Seems that I can't even find Lucy's father or mother. At Rootsweb it says she was married a 2nd time, but didn't list who, & that Matthew came of that marriage. This is so confusing, as the Van Curlers took the name of Cuyler as that was Lucy's maiden name? I got all this at rootsweb.com. I started looking as my family did a report years ago on the Cuylers. They even went to Cuyler New York, lol. In it, there's a page that says there may be some Indian blood somewhere, but haven't found anything to that nature yet. Guess I'll keep looking. Thanks for the info you did give me. Kathy

2004-09-22 17:54:18Z

Ken Cuyler

Re: Aaron Cuyler

2004-09-22 17:40:42Z

My Grand father Charles (b 1877) & your Grand father Curtis (b 1875) were brothers. I can not make a direct connection between Matthew & Aaron But, I believe they were son & father.
The story that I have is that Aaron (b 1775) about 1840 changed the family name from Van Curler to Cuyler which was his Mothers name.
If I can be of any additioal please advise.

Just any info on who Matthew's real dad is would be helpful, as I've come to a roadblock. I did find Laurin Hills heritage all the way back to 1548, but have also come to a roadblock on Ida Letta Hawleys lineage. Anything would be helpful. Thank you, Kathy Cuyler Austin

Re: Aaron Cuyler

What proof do you have that Matthew was the son of Aaron (III) b 8/3/1807 d 2/2/1888.Aaron (III) was the son of Aaron (jr) b1775 who married Lucy CUYLER b 1783.
It was Aaron(III) who apparently changed the name from Van Curler To Cuyler
According to one of Matthews daughters Cora(CUYLER) Matthews "He came from the east as 4 brothers"
I believe the 4 brothers were Charles, Abram, Matthew, &Rufus.
Matthew was living With the NIPPER family according to the 1850 census.
I would appreciate any additional information you may have.
