Re: Nancy Schuyler married to Henry Van Driesen

GayleWest31 — 2009-09-27 21:03:25Z

I regret I have not been active in genealogy for several years now due to my husband's massive heart attack which he, thankfully, survived. I see I have no information at all on Henry VanDriesen and Nancy Schuyler's ancestry.
I don't know how to get back to you when I do. I think right before the heart attack I was given a package of information by snail mail which might have more info.
In the meantime. Ancestry.com has changed how it works so much that I am not doing well getting around in it. It was once simple and efficient, but the more options they add, the more confusing it is to me. If I haven't contacted you in the next week, please re-post to me so I can reply. The list of Caroline VanDriesen and George Washington Loomis' children includes my gr grandmother Francis Marie Loomis who married Samuel Green. I have a lot of information on that family but not Schuyler VanDriesen ancestors. Am curious as to your link. Thank you for your post! Gayle

Dear Gayle,
Hello. I have not a lot of concrete evidence yet. However, I believe the Schuyler/Van Driesen's you are researching are the same ones I am researching. Please feel free to contact me.

This SCHUYLER family is a descendant of Philip SCHUYLER (1718 - 1784) who died in Hunterdon County. They were not related to the Albany, NY Schuyler family. Philip married Anna ANDERSON (1725 - 1796) and had 15 children.

This is not my direct line but that of relatives. I haven't made the link; just have a bit of information otherwise. 1860, NJ, Morris Co shows John Schuyler Sr, 64, with Catherine, 67, John Jr, 33, and Caroline, 8. I'm guessing that Caroline remained in NJ with grandparents when her father moved west - Iowa and then Nebraska. Have you looked at the newly posted database on Germans in New Jersey?

Other than what is on-line, I have no documentation or I would share it with you.

Happy hunting,
Shirley

John and Emaline Schuyler

VickieJohnson1955 — 2009-08-02 22:31:16Z

My husband is a descendant of John and Emaline (Heath) Schuyler. John is the son of John (born 1798 died 1860)and Catherine Schuyler (born 1788 died July 3, 1868). John and Catherine also had a son Peter. Peter was the first husband of Emaline (Heath), John married her upon the death of his first wife Caroline Carr and Peter's death. He is a descendant of John and Emaline's son John Franklin. John Franklin is his Great grandfather.

This is what I know:
John and Catherine Schuyler parents of:
(Father John was in the Civil War and marched to the sea with General Sherman)
John and Peter Schuyler.
John married Caroline Carr a teacher from Philadelphia. They had a daughter. When Caroline died their daughter was small and she stayed with her grandparents Carr who took her in and raised her.
Peter married Emaline Heath near Morristown, NJ.
Peter and Emaline had 4 children;
Charles (eventually stayed with his grandparents Heath).
Catherine Schuyler - married Arthur McKinney,
Jerimiah Schuyler - married Jenny McKinney,
Cora Schuyler - married Thomas Hamilton.
John and Emaline married and had 9 children;
John Franklin Schuyler - married Esther Ann Hardy,
Freeman Hitchcock Schuyler - married Florence Bunnell,
Melvin Dieco Schuyler - married Hazel Yoeman,
Martha Schuyler - married William Otte, He died and she
married his brother Henry,
Flossie Schuyler - married Fred Pierce,
Alice Schuyler - married Jacob Schrier,
Grace Schuyler - married William Weber,
Anna Schuyler - died at the age of three in Iowa.

Everyone claims they are descendants of Gen Schuyler but cannot link to them. Can you help me out either way?

I would appreciate any information you may have that will help me out and that you are willing to share.

Greetings!

I've discovered about you through the internet, while I was searching for my cousin's long-lost father Mr. Amos B. Tiger Sr. I just want to ask for any help or assistance if you could please assist me in finding him.

Mr. Amos B. Tiger Sr. was a US Navy who had his military service here in the Cavite , Philippines , year 1958, and met my cousin's mother Ms. Nenita Malimban. But due to the problems between the both of them, they did not end up together. Ms. Nenita Malimban gave birth and that is my cousin named Mr. Cleto Amos Tiger Jr., named after Mr. Amos B. Tiger Sr. as shown on my cousin’s birth certificate..

All we know about Mr. Amos B. Tiger Sr is that he is a US Navy from Oklahoma and by year 1959 had his service in Wachington DC . Attached is his picture taken about 50 years ago. As estimated, he might be around 75-77 years old now., (might born around 1932-1934)

My cousin has been looking and longing for him since birth.

I hope you could extend some help or assistance for this matter.

Hoping for your response.

Thank you.

Hello! I know that you posted this about ten years ago but I have a question in regards to your posting on the Schuyler - Schryer connection. I've never come across any connection to these two names. Would you be able to direct me to your source information? I've found that a Nicholas Schryer and a seperate Nicholas Schuyler existed seperately in North America.

Hello All,
This is all so close to the Schyuler info I've posted on the other thread...how many Schyulers can all be so close together in Northern NJ and not be related?
You may find something if you can check the records of the Chester Cemetary, located behind the Chester Presbyterian Church in Chester NJ, for my ancestors in the Schyuler family plot.
I am decended from the Peter Schyuler line.
See my other post, it explains it all there...good luck!
Last time I was in NJ, I took photos of the Schyuler gravestones with names and dates, email me if you would like to see. d_weise@hotmail.com

Hi Lois, thanks for sending a message. You must be Lea's sister? I have exchanged a few emails with Lea re family tree stuff, but it's been a while. The photo is attached. I would love to find out who the other people in it are. Maybe they are your grandmother's relatives on her side. I came across the photo at the Bucks County Historical Society; I don't know how they got it but that's where the originals are. My email is skies4@verizon.net. Thanks!

Schuyler J. Stockham

BrandyBunson63 — 2008-11-12 19:13:52Z

I am looking for the parents of Schuyler J. Stockham born in 1821 in Pennsylvania. He married Mary Ann (unknown surname) born about 1828 in New Jersey. They had four children, all born in Wayne County,Michigan. They are: Celia born about 1848, Emma born about 1850, William born about 1853, George born about 1859. According to the 1870 and 1880 U.S. Census for Detroit, Michigan, Schuyler J. Stockham was a wholesale lumber merchant. Since Schuyler is an unusual given name, I think that it must be a family name and that he must be connected to the Schuyler family. I have noted that some of the Schuyler family are from Bucks County Pennsylvania. Bucks County is where the immigrant George Stockham (1736-1821) and his wife Elizabeth Biss settled when they arrived from Bristol, England and where they had their large family. Schuyler Stockham's mother may have been a Schuyler. I would appreciate any information that may lead me to his parents.

Re: Van Rensselaer Schuyler

cliffnye — 2008-09-04 16:50:40Z

Hello
Thanks for the information. This is my wife's side of the family. I haven't done anything on her ancestry for years now, since it is so well known. Her Grandmother was Katrina VanRensselaer and Grandfather was Maurice Edwin Ginn Sr.(founder of Ginn Pubilshing Company-most of the school books printed by Ginn Publishing through the 20th Century. He also gave a Million dollars in 1910 to start the World Peace Organization which still exists at Harvard University). So both sides of the family, Grandfather and grandmother came from money. None of it flowed to her though. I always kid her that I only married her for her money and now she doesn't have any. We've been married 42 years though. So, that's the story. Thanks again for the information.

I hope to I.D. the people in this photo, which I think was taken in the 1940s-50s. The far right end is Howard Schuyler, a.k.a. "Chunk", son of Arthur & Lizzie. His wife, Edna Walter Schuyler, is standing next to him. Howard, 1892-1966, was from Doylestown in Bucks County, PA and died there. His wife Edna, 1897-1990 was born in western PA. Any info pls post.

Schuyler, Negley, Shearstone, and Lewis

2006-08-04 01:20:27Z

John Henry (Harry) NEGLEY, 1853-1897 (the son of John Henry Negley and Mary Harper of Butler, PA) (and great grandson of Alexander Negley of Pittsburgh) had two wives: Mary LACK and Elizabeth SHEARSTONE (the daughter of an British immigrant lead miner)..

Harry and Mary Lack had one child, Mary Lack Negley, b. 1879 in Butler or Philadelphia, PA. The child, Mary Lack Negley m. Othey Monroe COVERT in Abt 1897 and stayed in Butler with their 4 children children.

Mary Lack died in 1880 and Harry then married Elizabeth Shearstone (1856-1939) in Philadelphia and had three children with her:

Stella Negley (1885-1967) (never married)
John Henry Negley, III (1887-bef. 1900)
Joseph Charles Negley (Abt 1890-1935), m. Irene W. SCHUYLER (1895-1971)

I have just discovered that, after Harry died in 1897 Elizabeth Shearstone Negley married a William G. LEWIS (William and Elizabeth are listed in the 1900 census with Stella Negley and Joseph Charles Negley) William was a painter and paper hanger. And I can only find the couple in the 1900 census.

Questions: Who is Irene W. SCHUYLERr (the wife of Joseph Charles (or Charles Joseph) Negley? Who are her parents? Where is she buried?

Who is William G. LEWIS? He was apparently born in PA in 1850 (according to the 1900 census), but I cannot determine any other specifics such as parents, siblings, death date, or burial..

Willing to share information.

Hello,

I thought I would be able to answer your question, but looking back at my notes, I can't.

I have Peter Carr's Rev. War Pension papers and can confirm his marriage to Hester and his children's names, but nothing about parents.

I descend through the son David Carr & Azubah Corwin. You?

Let me go through more of my notes and see if I can find anything of use for you.

Laura

Re: Philip and Ann Anderson Schuyler

Kalkowski — 2007-11-07 03:39:11Z

Hi Mark,

Well, let's see here. It was several years ago that my mother started her work on this line. She and I descend from Peter thru David Carr & Azubah Corwin, then Hiram H. Carr & Agnes (some holes there), then Horace Brown Carr & Flora Belle Rowe, then Agnes Carr & William W. Garwood. The family went from NJ to Orange Co., NY (iffy memory here - I think that was around Port Jervis?), then north to Cortland Co., NY. Hiram H. Carr was in Cortland Co. until his death in 1914. His son Horace B. went to northeast Nebraska, Dixon Co. From there Agnes Carr married and went to Wyoming. Just a little background.

If you can figure out all our abbreviations, here is the War Pension record. It is typed the way it was written:

(March 15, 2003, Denver Public Library)
Genealogical Abstracts of Revolutionary War Pensions, G973.34 W586ge (in three volumes)

Well, that more or less sums up the main info I have form the Rev. War papers. It doesn't mention Peter Carr (Kerr)'s immigration, birth, parents, nothing. I do know that we did not exhaust all our avenues of research in NJ. I wonder if more info could be found in the Dutch Church records, the NJ State Historical Society or in some of the County societies.

Let me keep looking in my notes for anything else that might interest you. If you'd like the info about our line, with spouses, dates, children, etc., let me know and I can send it to you personally, not on the message board. Hope this helps with something!

Hi Mark,

Yes, I am still here. I do have some Rev. War papers for Peter Carr and other notes. No parents or immigration, though. I will try to sit down tonight and send you some of these notes. I think there are quite a few.

I'll have time later to help you out a bit. I hope. Which line do you descend from?

She was the sister of Edna (Cisco) Simmons and I believe that their mother was Ida Schuyler. I am also trying to find out about her father my great grandfather, whose name might have been Edward Cisco, born in 1859. Ida would have been born in 1856 or close to that year.

Re: Edward King Schuyler

kcmoroyals — 2008-01-18 05:27:32Z

I do not come through this line, but Olivia Angeline King is my great-great-great aunt. After Edward King Schuyler's father died, she married George W Smith, the sister of my Great-great grandmother. I believe that Mattie Owen King's maiden name was Wilson. Three of their children, Cora, Raymond and Viola are on the California Death Index, and it lists Wilson as the maiden name of their mother. Has anybody found out Edward's father's name? Based on the census records that list Edward, he was born in NY.

Hope you're still out there. I am also descended from Peter Carr and Hester Schuyler. I have run into a brick wall trying to find Peter's parents and where they immigrated from. Do you have any info?

Mark Johnson

Re: Philip and Ann Anderson Schuyler

markrmaria — 2007-08-06 22:21:29Z

Hi,
I am descended from David's younger brother William Henry, and William's wife Jane Stanton.
It really seems strange to me that info on Peter's ancestry is so hard to find. He married into a very prominent family. I'm wondering if he has some "skeletons in the closet", and his ancestry is not straight forward. I even paid someone at the NJ Historical Society to check him out, and they couldn't come up with anything more than I already had.
Anyway, thanks for the quick reply, and I would sure appreciate a note if you run across any more information.

Thanks,
Mark Johnson

Laura,
Thanks for the information. There are a few tidbits in there that I didn't have about his war record. Very interesting. You mentioned the NJ Historical Society. I already paid someone there to try to find Peter's ancestry. They too ran into a brick wall.
If I stumble onto to something I'll be sure to let you know.

Thanks Again,

Re: Philip and Ann Anderson Schuyler

markrmaria — 2007-11-05 23:29:28Z

Don't know if you're still out there or not, but I am very interested in finding out more about Peter Carr. He and Hester are direct descendants. But I have not been able to find out anything about Peter's parents, or when the Carr family came to the US. Anything in the Rev. War papers that addresses this?

Mark Johnson

Re: Philip and Ann Anderson Schuyler

markrmaria — 2007-11-06 22:47:24Z

Laura,
Thanks for the help. I am descended from Peter Carr as follows:
Peter Carr - Hester Schuyler
William Henry Carr - Jane Stanton
George W. Carr - Hannah Jane Everhart
etc.
I am really curious about the ancestry of Peter Carr. It seems strange that there appears to be no record of it, even though he married into a very well-to-do family (at least the Schuylers were very important people a generation or two before Hester).
Looking forward to hearing from you, and if there is any info I have that you need, I would certainly like to share it with you.

Thanks,

Mark

I recently purchased a bunch of old photos. One of the photos shows a couple and is labeled on the reverse "Schuyler - Ruth Reyner". The photo was taken at a photo studio in Wellsville, Missouri. Maybe someone will recognize one of their ancestors.

Attached is a copy of the photo. If these are your ancestors, please contact me.

Karen,

I was actually wrong about Jesse's parents. His parents were William Schuyler and Christina ???. Do you have any information on William (b. 1794)?

Re: Schuyler, E. - 1881 - WI

Hello,

I have a few of Mr. Schuyler letters. The letters appear to be to friends and speak about personal issues & business ones. Regarding him being a salesman, one of the letters state that he was "elected" salesman at the Aztalan Cheese factory in 1881.

The personal part of the letters mention a couple who were married and at the wedding had their 3 day old baby with them. I do not believe it is a relation to Mr. Schuyler, more of one tha was associated with him.

Please let me know if you have anymore questions.

None of this rings a bell. They must be from another line.
My William was born in 1785 in NJ, and married to Unis Beemer Culver. They went to Simcoe, Ontario, Canada, were they died.

Krystal,

Spouse: Miriam Willits Shinn B: 23 Sep 1829 Mt. Holly, Burlington Co., NJ D: 23 Jun 1909 Burlington Co., NJ

At present this is all the information I have on Ben. but the Schuyler lineage goes back to 1575 to Emmen, Drenthe Province, Netherlands. The Schuyler progenitor here in the states is Col. Philip Pieterse Schuyler who is my 8th G-GF and your 9th G-GF.

Hope this helps in your quest.

Schuyler lore about a relation of the General being a horse thief

christineschuyler — 2006-06-24 19:07:02Z

Our family "legend" is that we are descended from one of General Philip Schuyler's (of Albany NY) relations, possibly a brother, who was a horse thief. He moved to southeastern Pennsylvania (Bucks or Montgomery County area), possibly to avoid persecution. I have found no evidence to support this story. Does this tale sound familiar to anyone? If so, please contact me.
What I do know is that our line goes like this: my husband Rob is son of Chester Clymer Schuyler Jr, who is son of Chester Sr, who is son of Arthur, who is son of Benjamin (1832-1916).
Thanks.Christine Schuyler
