Hi Alison

I have worked on the CUYLER family tree for my niece and managed to find a considerable amount of information on ancestry.com as well as from the Library, Albany Institute of History, 125 Washington Avenue, Albany, NY, USA. Theirs is a very interesting history.
I think that the Schuyler/Cuyler story has become a little mixed up. The father of Colonel and landrost Jacob Cuyler was Abraham Cornelius Cuyler and his mother was Jane Elizabeth Glen. They were first cousins.

Abraham's parents were:
Cornelis CUYLER and Catalyntje SCHUYLER
and
Jane's parents were:
Jacob GLEN and Elizabeth CUYLER (the sister of Cornelis Cuyler).

Both Abraham's and Elizabeth's Cuyler ancestors originally came from Hasselt, Netherlands.

I would appreciate any photo's of the Cuyler graves which you may be able to scan and email.
I have further historical and genealogical information on the Cuyler family if anyone is interested.

Bless you,
Thanks,
Maureen McCleland
