THE LORD SHIP AND MANOR O F L IVINGSTON B efore beginning my address let me explain that I have done t o o ld everything possible obtain access to papers , letters , owned by members Of the family , which might throw new light upon the Livingston Manor , but in the majority Of cases such papers were not available . Hence I am compelled t o s t n fall back almo t en irely upon material already well know , and shall merely sketch to yo u a concise account Of the creation and duration Of the Manor Of Livingston , introducing such items Of interest as I could Obtain t o enlighten us somewhat o f o n e o f as to the lives the owners of those vast estates , which o were decreed by Royal authority t be Lordships and Manors . I t is well known that the men Of greatest influence in the early days Of o ur Colonial history were from the aristocratic class , numbered among which were the Livingstons . Their names constantly occurred in the early historical records Of Scotland . Their first ancestor , as far as has yet been traced was a Saxon o r n Le vin o r wh o t o Thane Noble , amed g Living , seemed have settled in Scotlan d in the latter part Of the r 1 th o r the early o f t h e 1 2 th o f part century , as is shown by his donation the “ ” “ ” Church Of his Villa o r Manor to the Abbey Of Ho le Od 1 2 founded in 1 8 . — 1 1 6 1 2 1 From 5 4 we find his grandsons , Alexander , William and Henry , all witnesses to further charters . ’ t o Were we able trace beyond Leving s time , we should “ ” “ probably find that his ancestor was named Liv o r Lif ” “ fo r the termination ing means family Of and when , in ’ u e about a cent ry after Leving s tim , surnames came into use , “ ” h is descendants naturally adop ted that Of de Livin gst o u n “ ” “ o r wh ich would mean the E state Of the family Of L iv Lif . Passing over a century or two we find that Sir Will iam Livingston married th e h eiress o f the House Of Callendar 1 th e abou t 34 5 , whence the Callendar Arms entered into n w 2 d r Livingston shield and o form its n and g d quarter ings . /7 From this tim e onwards th e Livingstons are continually appearing in S cottish h istory as holders of Office of r e spo n sib ility including the high Office Of Custodian o f the Royal Palace y o f . Of Linlithgow , where was born Mar Queen Scots Among her Maids o f Honour was - not only Mary Livingston (o n e Of “ in t h e Four but a lso her younger sister M agdale e . They were the daughters o f William sixth Lord Livingston o f I st . Callendar , cousin Of the Rev Alexander Livingston , great grand father Of Robert first Lord o f the Manor Of Livingston . 1 8 I t was in 4 5 that the Estates Of S ir James Livingston , the Of then representative the family , were formed into the free B arony o f Callendar and shortly thereafter he was created a ” Lord Of Parliament . 1 600 In Alexander , seventh Lord Livingston Of Callendar was f K a m s I created Earl o Linlithgow by ing J e V . o f In regard to the Arms the Livingstons Of Callendar , which are those borne by the Livingstons Of America , we find “ ” the rather u n usual charge Of a double tressure in the Liv in st o n o r o f g quarterings , indicative either Of royal descent some distinguished service . It is as yet unknown when this o r fo r o f was granted , which reason , therefore we the present day have the alternative Of believing ourselves descended either from some o n e Of the Kings Of Scotland o r from some lo u ro us va o u r . very ancestor , according as tastes incline 1 00 o f Abou t 5 William , fourth Lord Livingston Callendar mar ried Agnes Hepburn o f that family which alas &was t o become t o o celebrated in later years by its representative James , Earl Of B othwell . e They had three sons , Alexander , fifth Lord Livingston , Jam s 1 who was killed at Pinkie Field in 54 7 and William .

  • New York Painting Begins: Eighteenth-Century Portraits at the New-York Historical Society the New-York Historical Society Holds
    New York Painting Begins: Eighteenth-Century Portraits at the New-York Historical Society The New-York Historical Society holds one of the nation’s premiere collections of eighteenth-century American portraits. During this formative century a small group of native-born painters and European émigrés created images that represent a broad swath of elite colonial New York society -- landowners and tradesmen, and later Revolutionaries and Loyalists -- while reflecting the area’s Dutch roots and its strong ties with England. In the past these paintings were valued for their insights into the lives of the sitters, and they include distinguished New Yorkers who played leading roles in its history. However, the focus here is placed on the paintings themselves and their own histories as domestic objects, often passed through generations of family members. They are encoded with social signals, conveyed through dress, pose, and background devices. Eighteenth-century viewers would have easily understood their meanings, but they are often unfamiliar to twenty-first century eyes. These works raise many questions, and given the sparse documentation from the period, not all of them can be definitively answered: why were these paintings made, and who were the artists who made them? How did they learn their craft? How were the paintings displayed? How has their appearance changed over time, and why? And how did they make their way to the Historical Society? The state of knowledge about these paintings has evolved over time, and continues to do so as new discoveries are made. This exhibition does not provide final answers, but presents what is currently known, and invites the viewer to share the sense of mystery and discovery that accompanies the study of these fascinating works.

FOREWORD The Bicentennial Project rirled "Portraits of Dutchess 1680-1807" began as a simple, personal arrempr ro catalog existing porrrairs of people whose lives were part of rhe county's history in rhe Colonial Period. As rhe work progressed ir became certain rhar relatively few were srill in the Durchess-Purnam area. As so many of rhem had become the property of Museums in other localities it seemed more important than ever ro lisr rhem and their present locations. When rhe Dutchess County American Revolution Bicentennial Commission with great generosity undertook rhe funding ir was possible ro illustrate rhe booklet with photographs from rhe many available sources. This document is nor ro be considered as a geneological or historic record even though much research in rhose directions became a necessity. The collection is meant ro be a pictorial record, only, hoping rhar irs readers may be made more aware rhar these paintings are indeed pictures of our ancestors. Ir is also hoped rhar all museum collections of Colonial Painting will be viewed wirh deeper and more personal interest. The portraits which are privately owned are used here by rhe gracious consent of the owners. Those works from public sources are so indicated.

I907. NO. I ' THE VAN RENSSELAER FAMILY. BY W. W. SPOONER. the early Dutch colonial families the Van OF Rensselaers were the first to acquire a great landed estate in America under the "patroon" system; they were among the first, after the English conquest of New Netherland, to have their possessions erected into a "manor," antedating the Livingstons and Van Cortlandts in this particular; and they were the last to relinquish their ancient prescriptive rights and to part with their hereditary demesnes under the altered social and political conditions of modem times. So far as an aristocracy, in the strict understanding of the term, may be said to have existed under American institu- tions—and it is an undoubted historical fact that a quite formal aristocratic society obtained throughout the colonial period and for some time subsequently, especially in New York, — the Van Rensselaers represented alike its highest attained privileges, its most elevated organization, and its most dignified expression. They were, in the first place, nobles in the old country, which cannot be said of any of the other manorial families of New York, although several of these claimed gentle descent.

He married CATALYN VERPLANCK. She died 08 Oct 1708. Notes for DAVIDSE PIETERSE SCHUYLER: David Schuyler by Stefan Bielinski David Pieterse Schuyler was a pioneer member of early Albany's most important New Netherland family. He was born in Holland in 1636, a younger son of German-born Amsterdam baker Pieter Diercks and Geertruy Philips van Schuyler. He spent the first decade and a half of his life in Amsterdam. By the mid-1650s, he had emigrated to New Netherland with his older brother, Philip Pieterse. Settling in Rensselaerswyck, the Schuylers initially were carpenters but quickly found fortune in trading for furs. By 1660, both brothers were listed among the principal fur traders of the community. In 1657, he married Catalina Ver Planck - the daughter of a New Amsterdam trader. Settling along the Albany waterfront near the north gate, David Schuyler traded for furs and for countryside produce. His marriage produced eight children between 1659 and 1678. He was a member and officer of the Albany Dutch Church. After serving in a number of civic positions during the 1660s, '70s, and early 1680s, in 1686, this city father was appointed alderman under the Albany city charter. He served as alderman for the third ward until his death.
