Johannes Schuyler Jr. (October 1697 – November 5, 1741) was a prominent American of Dutch ancestry who served as the Mayor of Albany, New York from 1740 to 1741, and was a merchant, alderman, and Indian commissioner. He was the father of U.S. Senator Philip Schuyler.

Early life and family

Schuyler was born in 1697 in Albany, New York in the then Province of New York. He was one of four children born to Johannes Schuyler (1668–1747) and Elizabeth (née Staats) Wendell (1647–1737).[1] His father was appointed the 10th Mayor of Albany and served from 1703 to 1706,[2] and later as a member of the provincial assembly.[3][4] His mother was a widow when she married his father and had already had 11 children with her first husband, Johannes Wendell (1649–1692),[5] His older brother was Philip Johannes Schuyler (1695–1745), who was killed during the French and Indian raid on Saratoga in 1745.[6] His younger sisters were Margarita Schuyler (1701–1782) and Catalyntie "Catharina" Schuyler (1704–1758).

Schuyler's maternal grandfather was Maj. Abraham Staats (1620–ca. 1694).[2] His paternal grandparents were Philip Pieterse Schuyler (1628-1683), a Dutch-born landowner, and Margarita Van Slichtenhorst (1628–1711).[8] His father was the youngest of six sons and one of 10 children born to his parents, Gertruj Schuyler (b. 1654), who married Stephanus van Cortlandt (1643–1700) (the patroon of Van Cortlandt Manor and a Mayor of New York City), Alida Schuyler (b. 1656), who first married Nicholas van Rensselaer (1636-1678) and then second, Robert Livingston the Elder (1654–1728), Brant Schuyler (1659-1702), who married Cornelia Van Cortlandt, Arent Schuyler (1662-1730).[7] Through his sister Catharina, he was the uncle of Abraham Cuyler (1742–1810), the last mayor of colonial Albany and the third generation in a row to serve in that office.[8]

Career

In 1733, he was Commissary at Oswego.[9] In 1739, while a prominent merchant, his father gave him the family farm at the Flats,[10] and he became seen as the head of the Albany Schuyler family. He was elected Alderman of the First Ward in 1738 and 1739.[11] and Commissioners of Indian Affairs for 8 years, having been appointed in 1734 and 1739.[12]

In September 1740, Schuyler was appointed and served as the Mayor of Albany, succeeding Edward Holland. He served from 1740 to 1741 when was re-nominated, but did not take the oath of allegiance required of officeholders. Therefore, Johannes de Peyster III was appointed Mayor after Schuyler.[15]

Personal life

On October 18, 1723, Schuyler was married to Cornelia Van Cortlandt (1698–1762), the daughter of Stephanus Van Cortlandt.[2] With this marriage, he gained a large dowry and a substantial inheritance from one of the wealthiest families in the Province of New York.[13] Together, they were the parents of ten children, only five who lived after his death, including:[14]

  • Geertruy "Gertrude" Schuyler (1724–1813), who married Pieter P. Schuyler (1723–1753). After his death, she married Dr. John Cochran (1730–1807), the Director General of the Military Hospitals of the Continental Army.[14]
  • Johannes Schuyler (1725–1746), who died unmarried.[14]
  • Stephanus Schuyler (b. 1727), who died young.[14]
  • Stephanus Schuyler (b. 1729), who also died young.[14]
  • Philip Schuyler (b. 1731), who also died young.[14]
  • Philip Schuyler (1733–1804), who married Catherine Van Rensselaer (1734–1803), the daughter of Johannes Van Rensselaer and Engeltie Livingston.[15]
