Biographical Sketch Philip John Schuyler (1733-1804) was a prominent member of the landed aristocracy of upstate New York. Born in Albany, Schuyler inherited extensive lands in the Saratoga Patent, through the Mohawk Valley, in Dutchess County, and along the Hudson River. He served in the British Army during the French and Indian War, rising to the rank of Major. His thirty year career in public office began in 1768 when he was elected to New York’s colonial assembly. There he sided with those favoring increased independence from Great Britain. He was a delegate to the second Continental Congress and was made one of the four Major-Generals in the Continental Army under Washington. During the Revolutionary War he commanded the forces of the Northern Department, 1775-1777, until replaced by Horatio Gates. However, he remained in his post as Commissioner of Indian Affairs and was re-elected to the Continental Congress, 1778-1781. He served in the New York State Senate, 1780-1784 and 1786-1790, and became one of New York’s first United States Senators, 1797-1798. Schuyler was also deeply involved in the commercial development of New York. He oversaw the construction of saw mills, gristmills, and New York’s first flax mill, exported timber and other products of his estates via his Hudson River fleet, and took a leading role in the development of better transportation. As president and leading force in the creation and incorporation of the Northern Inland Lock Navigation Company and the Western Inland Lock Navigation Company, he constructed the canals that would form the basis of the great Erie Canal system.

Series descriptions and container list The Philip Schuyler Papers are arranged in 12 series: Letters Received, Letters Sent, Indian Papers, Canal Papers, Surveyor General Papers, Public Papers, Mathematics/Engineering Notes, Financial & Legal Papers, Estate Papers, Land Papers, Family Papers, and Military Papers. The first two series contain most of Schuyler’s correspondence, although letters can be found in several of the other series as well. Letters Received, 1761-1804 consists chiefly of 2,431 letters arranged chronologically. A two volume calendar of these letters arranged alphabetically by name of the correspondent was prepared by Mrs. Solomon Alofsen in 1851 and is available in the reading room. The majority of the letters are from military officers, members of the Continental Congress, committees of safety, and private individuals relative to the conduct of the Revolutionary War in the Northern Department, 1775-1777. Correspondents include Benedict Arnold, George Clinton, John Cockran, James Duane, Benjamin Franklin, Henry Glen, Richard Montgomery, William Smith, Jr., Richard Varick, George Washington, and members of the Gansevoort, Lansing, Livingston, Van Rensselaer, and Yates families. In addition to the calendared letters are Schuyler’s letterbook of copies of letters and instructions from General Washington and the Continental Congress, June 1775-June 1778; approximately 70 letters, 1769-1796 (i.e. 1769; 1796-1797) from Stephen Theodore Johnson, Peter R. Livingston, Harmanus Schuyler, and Philip Ten Eyck; and 32 letters written to Schuyler in 1788 as a member of the New York Council of Appointment recommending persons for various public offices. Letters Sent, 1769-1804 include three letterbooks, 1775-1778, of letters from Schuyler to the Continental Congress, General Washington and others on the conduct of the war; two volumes of letters and military orders issued by Schuyler and his aides-de-camp, Richard Varick and John Lansing, Jr., 1776-1777; additional letters and military orders, 1769-1804; and letters to family members, 1787-1795, the bulk to his son John B. Schuyler, 1787-1794, including John's wife Elizabeth, regarding personal and business matters, and to his wife and daughter Catherine, 1795, regarding John's death. Indian Papers, 1710-1797 consist of his papers as Commissioner of Indian Affairs in the Northern Department during the Revolutionary War, and as agent of the state of New York. They include speeches made at Indian councils; notes of proceedings; minutes of the commissioners’ meetings; accounts of supplies; expenses of Indian delegates and commissioners; letters; resolutions of Congress; acts of the New York State legislature; and various papers relating to the lands of the Six Nations, including numerous claims filed in 1795 by white settlers in the Cayuga reservation. Among the papers are letters of Guy, Sir William, and Sir John Johnson, a speech of Joseph Brant, and the journal of Marin’s expedition against Saratoga, 1745.

Canal Papers, 1792-1803 contain letters to and from Schuyler as president of both the Northern and Western Inland Lock Navigation Companies, with resolutions of the Board of Directors, reports, surveys, calculations, accounts, and other papers regarding the construction of canals to link the Hudson River at Troy with Lake Champlain, and the Mohawk River at Schenectady with Lake Ontario. Included is a diary and expense account of Schuyler’s 1802 journal along the Mohawk River and Canada Creek while supervising the construction and repair of the canal. Correspondents include Frederick De Zeng, Barent Bleecker, Samuel Jones, John Porteous, Thomas Eddy, Gerard Walton, and John Murray. An index of this correspondence is available.

Surveyor General Papers, 1773-1788 contain letters to and from Schuyler as New York State Surveyor General, receipts for land certificates, locations of bounty lands, transfers, and other papers, 1782-1788; and his papers as boundary commissioner in the New York-Massachusetts boundary line dispute, 1773-1787.

Public Papers, ca. 1775-1796 include drafts of legislation, copies of resolutions on various topics, a plan of education for the Washington Academy, and draft proposals and plans for a New York State prison, including floor plans and a sketch of the front elevation.

Mathematics/Engineering Notes contain papers dealing with various scientific and

mechanical matters such as the building of canal locks, surveying of land, problems in physics, and calculations of interest, insurance, stock values, and conversions of currency and weights and measures.

Financial and Legal Papers, 1711-1805 consist of records of personal and household

expenses, bills and receipts for provisions, clothing and merchandise, 1750-1803; military accounts of public moneys, cattle and provisions furnished by his estate, and damages done by troops, 1775-1782; business accounts including accounts with Stanton Teft, 1768-1778, and with several New York City commission merchants, 1785-1787, for timber and boards; and papers regarding his schooner, Saratoga, 1763-1768; account books, 1711-1805 recording rents collected, and general expenses; bonds, promissory notes, and powers of attorney drawn to Schuyler, 1761-1804; a 1755 warrant to raise a company of soldiers; a 1767 commission, and Schuyler’s credentials as a member of the Continental Congress, 1779.

Estate Papers, 1755-1809 pertain to the settlement of various estates for which Schuyler

acted as executor or was involved with in some way, and to his own estate after his death. The most extensive estate papers are those of General John Bradstreet, comprising letters from Bradstreet to Schuyler, correspondence between Schuyler, Beverly Robinson, Sir Charles Gould, Peter Livius, members of the Bradstreet family, and others, as well as accounts, vouchers, inventories, and legal documents, some of which relate to the Dutch church at Albany, and to the affairs of Bradstreet and Schuyler as quartermasters in the French and Indian War. The remainder of the papers pertain to the estates of Schuyler’s father-in-law John (Johannes) Van Rensselaer, his brother-in-law Jeremiah Van Rensselaer, his nephew John Cortlandt Schuyler, his son John Bradstreet Schuyler, consisting of correspondence with John C. Cuyler, 1796-1798, his mother Cornelia Van Cortlandt Schuyler, and his own estate.
