![]() The receipt of yours and Angelicas 5 letter announcing that she is to come by land, I have written Philip and Sally 6 to accompany their Sister home. Here immediately on the Arrival of his Mother & Sisters-and since With a message from me that will afford her comfort & confidence in ![]() Has visited me since his return from England he is returned to his wife That your wishes have been anticipated at least as far as immediately Me the most pleasing sensations and I am happy that I can assure you Your anxiety that the Harmony of the family should be compleat, affords The value Alexander placed on his relationships with all the Schuyler family is illustrated by a letter from Philip Schuyler during the heightened tensions surrounding Philip Jeremiah’s elopement, dated : When Philip Jeremiah and Cornelia eloped against Philip Schuyler’s wishes, Alexander stood by them, writing on Philip Jeremiah’s behalf and allowing Cornelia and her husband, Washington Morton, to come stay with them in New York. When her brother John passed away at only thirty, she and Alexander helped look after his son. Alexander, who was so distant with his own brother, seemed to relish his relationships with all of Eliza’s numerous siblings. I also enjoyed their post about Philip Jeremiah’s elopement.Įliza, Angelica, and Peggy were all close in age, which helps explain their particularly close relationship, but Eliza seems have gotten along well with all her siblings up until her father’s death. There’s a great follow-up called, “ My Dear Sister: Eliza and Caty Post-Schuyler Siblings Land Squabble” detailing Eliza’s relationship with her youngest sister as they grew older. “ Schuyler Sibling Land Squabble” was a particularly good post, covering the turmoil that broke out between Eliza and her younger sisters, Cornelia and Catherine, after their father’s death. Letters are collected from books, articles, online sources and library collections. I’d recommend the Schuyler Mansion blog as a great resource for information about the other Schuyler siblings. A place to find letters to and from Elizabeth Schuyler Hamilton. Thank you! And it’s very true, Eliza and Angelica’s relationship does seem to get the most attention. Btw your writing is amazing, please keep up the awesome work. I've searched info on the internet but other than Angelica, Eliza and Peggy, there really isn't much out there (to be fair there isn't that much about Peggy either). Anonymous asked: I was wondering if you could talk a bit about the schuyler siblings and their relantionships with one another.
