  • Historic Wallpaper Fragment C. 1820-1830 Materials: Cotton Paper, Ink American
    Historic Wallpaper Fragment c. 1820-1830 Materials: Cotton paper, ink American During the restoration of the Homestead in the 1960s, wallpapers dating to the first quarter of the nineteenth century were found in the Library. Four layers of wallpaper were discovered behind the earliest of the built-in bookcases, which is on the east wall. According to curator Lewis C. Rubenstein, the papers were obtained by cutting a hole in the wall from the other side (in the service hall) and removing a complete cross-section of plaster without disturbing the bookcase. The bottom layer of paper (c. 1801) is a green and white leaf pattern, which has been reproduced and installed in the Front Parlor. The second paper (c. 1805-1815), is the yellow and white hop flower pattern that is currently reproduced in the Dining Room. The third layer (c. 1810-1825) is a stylized pineapple or pine cone pattern printed in ochre, black, and white and is reproduced in the Hall. This top layer is a pillar print with an elaborate floral and foliate motif in black and green on a yellow ground; it can still be seen through cracks in wall behind the bookcase. All of the wallpapers are block-printed on sheets of paper that are made up of squares pasted together to form long strips. The section that was removed by the curator can be definitively dated to John Jay’s period of residence because there is a pencil inscription on one of the layers. On the underside of the top layer of paper, a pencil inscription reads: "John Jay, Esq./ Bedford" and "...Mr.

  • The Colonel by Marcus R. Cimino for Generations, Chief Justice John Jay
    The Colonel By Marcus R. Cimino For generations, Chief Justice John Jay and his descendants fought tooth and nail to abolish slavery in the United States. Jay’s son Peter Augustus Jay, and his youngest son William Jay, both were publicly and ideologically opposed to slavery. When America the Civil War began, Colonel William Jay (also known as “the Colonel”) represented the Jay’s honorably; not only in his civic duties, but also to finish what his ancestors started, and rid the nation of slavery once and for all. The Jay’s estate in the Hudson Valley, which had been passed down for five generations, tells a tale of some of the less recognized of John Jay’s descendants, among them is the Chief Justice’s grandson Colonel William Jay. “The Colonel” is an illusive character, and documentation on his life is hard to come by, but the historians in charge of the Jay’s estate at Bedford compiled as much as they could on the Colonel through letters and archives, telling the tale of a life that seemed affluent, as well as fortified by the generational success of his ancestors. Although Jay was blessed with his family’s legacy, and justly earned his rank in the military, his immediate family was devastated by illness and death at a time when medicine and physicians lacked behind the advancement of the rest of post-Civil War America. Colonel William Jay embraced the Jay tradition of public servitude, family values, and the overall end of slavery. Unlike his ancestors, William witnessed the abolition of slavery via the thirteenth amendment.

PUBLISHED BY LEAVITT, LORD & Co. 180 BROADWAY. BOSTON :—CROCKER & BREWSTER 1835. [Entered according to Act of Congress, by David M. Reese, M.D. in the clerk's office of the District Court of the Southern District of New-York.] Stereotyped by Conner & Cooke. RECOMMENDATIONS. From the Rev. John Breckinridge, President of the Young Merfs Co- lonization Society of Pennsylvania. New-York, May 13, 1835. I have examined with much interest and satisfaction, the proof sheets of the chief parts (the whole being not quite complete) of Dr. Reese's " Letters to the Hon. Wm, Jay," in reply to his late work against the American Colonization Society. Dr. Reese has largely merited the thanks of the American people, for the prompt and satisfactory manner in which he has refuted and exposed a work, which, upon a momentous and agitating question, and under an imposing name, has said more disingenuous, sophistical. and yet dangerous things, than I had supposed it possible to be uttered in so small a compass, by so honest, so good, and so sensible a man. JOHN BRECKINRIDGE. From the Rev. Drs. Milnor, Brownlee, omd De Witt.. Dear Sir, —Having been favoured with the opportunity of reading the proof sheets of a large portion of your answer to the recent publi- cation of the Hon. William Jay, assailing the principles and proceed- ings of the American Colonization Society, we beg leave to express our approbation of the views which you have presented; and to add.

  • Joseph Cusno the Sicilian Immigrant and the Jays Of
    JOSEPH CUSNO THE SICILIAN IMMIGRANT AND THE JAYS OF BEDFORD The story of Joseph Cusno is one that embraces the American dream and a dream that this enterprising man realized beyond all expectations when he became a household servant at John Jay’s farm in Bedford. His journey from Sicily to America eventually brought him a long association with three generations of the Jay family and a home and family of his own. To understand the world that he entered, we must begin with John Jay’s own retirement in 1801 to his Bedford farm after a long and distinguished career as a public official. By 1798 Jay, then governor of New York, had determined to retire to his farm in Bedford, which he acquired through inheritance and purchase. A cottage on the property was occupied by his farm manager, Maj. Lyons, and was converted into a three-story house with a piazza over looking the country side. It was not as grand as Mount Vernon or Monticello, but was comfortable with a simple elegance and quiet reserve and ultimately proved to be home to the Jay family for more than 150 years. In May of 1801 Jay wrote to Maj. Lyons “It often gives me pleasure to reflect on Good Will & friendly attachmt (sic) - which I have uniformly experienced from the Town in which I expect and hope to pass the Remainder of my life.”i Jay moved into the house in the spring of 1801 with his seventeen year old daughter, Anne, known as Nancy. Jay‘s wife, Sarah, was in poor health and did not take up residence in the house until later that year.

  • Antislavery Due Process in New York State Courts, 1840-1860
    No Person Shall Be Deprived: Antislavery Due Process in New York State Courts, 1840-1860 Zachary Aaron Kimmel Undergraduate Senior Thesis Department of History Columbia University March 2021 Seminar Advisor: Professor Samuel Roberts Second Reader: Professor Stephanie McCurry Abstract In this paper, I argue that Alvan Stewart’s conceptualization of antislavery due process, which asserted that slavery was unconstitutional according to the Fifth Amendment, even in the states, was not exclusively a constitutional theory but functioned as a coherent legal strategy employed by abolitionist lawyers in formal litigation in the antebellum North, primarily in New York State. For a significant portion of the antebellum period, abolitionist constitutional theory and legal thought was defined by what historian William Wiecek has called “federal consensus”: Congress had the power to abolish slavery in areas under exclusive federal jurisdiction, such as the western territories or the District of Columbia, but the federal government lacked the constitutional authority to abolish or otherwise interfere with slavery in the states.1 Such a limited view of the constitutional power over the domestic institutions of the states was enshrined in American jurisprudence by the U.S. Supreme Court in Barron v. Baltimore (1833). Writing for a unanimous Court, Chief Justice John Marshall reasoned that the individual rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights were only binding upon the actions of Congress, not the states. The Court’s landmark ruling in Barron had profound implications for the American antislavery movement. In the years following the decision, many of the prominent abolitionist organizations of the antebellum North, including the American Anti-Slavery Society and its various state affiliates, accepted the Barron precedent as settled law.
