Gerard William Livingston, the sixth Lord of the Manor in direct line, lived in a large double frame house on the west side of the Bloomingdale Road, be- tween present 108th and 109th Streets. He was a merchant at 3 South Street, having in 1825 a city residence at 323 Greenwich Street and in 1831 at 101 Prince Street. He and his wife Cornelia de Peyster joined the communion August 4, 1838. Elected Elder, July 25, 1842, the Consistory met at his Bloomingdale

seat in the usual rotation. He acted as Secretary pro tem. and represented the congregation at Classis. Having removed to Hackensack, where he remained four years, he resigned in 1844. On his return to town, he became an Elder in the Brick Church, corner of Fifth Avenue and 37th Street, and here his funeral services were held, thence to Woodlawn. He d. May 21, 1868. His descent includes so many interesting lines that it is indited in the accompanying table.


Their issue were Edward Mortimer, b. 1837, bap. by Domine van Aken, d. in infancy; William Howard, d. in infancy; Anna de Peyster; Cornelia Margaretta and Emily Maria, b. 1842 and bap. by Domine van Aken. Anna de Peyster m. Charles Havens Hunt, 1855, lawyer and Assistant U. S. District Attorney under Theodore Sedgwick, and author of the Life of Edward Livingston 1864. She d. May 2, 1907, and left issue. Cornelia Margaretta, m. Jules Petit of Parsons & Petit, com- mission merchants. He was the son of Edward Petit of Bordeaux, who came to New York to retrieve his fortunes. After his death, his widow opened the school in Bloomingdale in the Richmond house heretofore mentioned. Later, she removed to Waverly Place, and there she died. Emily Maria Livingston m. Edward C. Lord of the firm of Lord, Day & Lord, and left issue. The eldest son, William Howard, was b. at Bloomingdale and all the children lived there. The youngest was about the age of six when the removal to New Jersey took place.


The estate of Jonathan Lawrence, who was at one time in the navy and was known accordingly among his friends as the Commodore, was located on the east side in the seventies and was bounded northwardly

by the Delafield estate. His widow Patience, the sister of Recorder Riker, lived on the property until her death Feb. 22, 1851. She joined the Church Oct. 31, 1840, and used to drive across present Central Park via the Harsenville road in order to attend service.


Jonas Hanaway, b. in England Aug. 23, 1788, was twice married there. He settled in Bloomingdale in 1826 with Martha Wilson (widow Beard) his (2) wife, whom he married in 1832. They lived in the parsonage on the Harsen gift. She was b. in Hertfordshire in 1791 and d. in 1890; became a church member, May 5, 1842, and her husband followed Nov. 4th. He d. 1871. George Hanaway, his son by the first wife, married Martha Moore, who united May I, 1845, and their children were baptized by Domine van Aken, viz. Maria, James, Sarah, and Samuel. Two of them were married by him, namely: Maria (united May 5, 1866) to Samuel Bawden, and Sarah (united Feb. 5, 1870) to Daniel Bremer. Samuel joined at the same time as Sarah and served as Deacon and Superintendent of the Sabbath-school. He was elected Elder Feb. 4, 1882, and was installed by the Rev. A. J. Park on the 2 1st. He presided at the organ for a time and later became Clerk of the Consistory. He is a professor at the City College. James is dead. James, the brother of George, also by the first wife, m. Margaret Kelly in the Church, 1854. She brought a certificate from the Church of Blairs, Scotland, and both were admitted Feb. 3, 1855. She is dead, but he still lives, very infirm. Four children, Elizabeth, Margaret, Jane, and Joseph, were bap. by the Domine, as also were the Bawden and Bremer children. The Rev. James C. Richmond mar- ried Sarah Hanaway, their sister, to George Branch Magrath, April 26, 1841, "at the parsonage of the


388


The new Dork of Desterday


Dutch Reformed Church, Harsenville" reads the record. Their first child was baptized by Domine van Aken, in I842.


Amelia Hanaway, a daughter by the second wife, united with the Episcopal Church and was the first teacher in the House of Mercy when it was located in an old frame building at 88th Street and Eighth Avenue, and was associated with Mrs. Richmond in founding the institution. She taught in the public schools for a few years. She died in 1862, at the age of twenty-nine.


Emily Hanaway, her sister, came to live in the par- sonage at the age of one year (1836), resided there for eight years, when the family removed to a house on an elevation at 75th Street and Ninth Avenue, and here she stayed for seventeen years. She continued to reside in the ward until 1896, when she settled in New Jersey. She learned to read in the same public school in 82nd Street in which she taught later, and was Principal for twelve years of the school in West 40th Street. She united with the Church May 3, 1850, and taught in the Sunday-school for seventeen years. She m., in 189 1, the Rev. Peter Stryker, pastor of the Re- formed Church in 34th Street. He had been pastor prior to its removal from Broome Street. We are in- debted very largely to a journal kept by Mrs. Stryker for the contents of the chapter which follows.


Mary Ann Hanaway, another sister, m. James Mackay Tyler, May 5, 1845. She died in England in 1897.


William James Beard, grandson of Martha Wilson Beard and son of William Edward Beard, who remained in England, came to America, and joined the com- munion Aug. 5, 1865. He served in the Civil War.

Dealing with a list of members and attendants of a century's length, the data here preserved are far from complete. The selection of names is fragrant of old times, and as the date limit has been reached, so has our patience. What more appropriate than that, as the chapter began with the father, it should close with the son. General Garrit Hopper Striker was born twenty-one years prior to the organization of the church society and grew up in attendance on its services from its birth. He was at once selected as collector of pew rents and of subscriptions towards the building of the parsonage, and continued in the former capacity for years, at which time and thereafter he taught in the Sabbath-school. Although usually con- stant in attendance in the family pew during life, he did not join the membership until March 29, 1867, the anniversary of his eighty-third birthday.


He exhibited a marked aptitude for a military career. An early biographical sketch of him asserts that he had before his 22nd year proved himself a good soldier and thereafter an efficient officer, panting for service and eager for the attainment of those laurels which can he earned alone in such employ. At the age of 26 he was commissioned Lieutenant in the 5th N. Y. Regt, 2d Brigade of Infantry, under Col. J. W. Mulligan, with rank from March 25, 1809. On the breaking out of the war he was assigned as Captain of the 4th Company in the 5th Regt. of Volunteers, Isaac A. van Hook having succeeded Mulligan in command. During the excited period of fortification of Blooming- dale Heights, while he was living at Striker's Bay, he attended the different calls of his ward and was active in obtaining subscriptions and laborers. Meetings were often held at Rodgers's Tavern, at 70th Street and the


390


The new Dork of Desterday


Road, and were attended by the neighbors in a united effort to hasten the erection of defences for the safety of their homes, that ward in which the work was carried on being the centre of active preparation. When not engaged in a military capacity Capt. Striker lent the enthusiasm of his youthful endeavors to stimulating others, to seeing that the family horses did their proper share at the works, and to collecting vegetables from the farm and attending to their distribution. His home was so near the line of defences that he passed much time during their construction on the ground and, with the assistance of his father's slaves, aided and abetted the progress of the work. The regiment to which he belonged was the last to be regularly designated by the Committee of Defence and it practically completed the works on the Heights. This regiment of de- tached militia and that under Lt .- Col. Dodge formed the Brigade commanded by General Mapes, who, on Oct. 22, 1814, tendered the officers and men thereof "his unfeigned thanks" for their soldierly appearance, stating that he did not believe the United States could "produce a corps, regular or militia, that could surpass, in exercise of the field, this brigade of militia infantry, transferred as it was in the short space of six weeks into a corps qualified to enter the lists and sustain a contest with veterans." These troops were reviewed by Governor Tompkins, Nov. IIth, and the Columbian said that their appearance did their officers honor and that their movements were so correct and regular in drill and science, that regular troops need not be ashamed thereof. "They contributed their full share," it adds "to inspire the citizens with the just confidence in their efficiency in any emergency." The Evacuation Day parade took place on Nov. 25th and, with military

ardor undiminished, proved to be the greatest event of this kind since the Revolution. About ten thousand men were in line, which extended from Sugar Loaf (now Franklin) Street up Broadway to 23d Street. On December 1, 1814, Gen. Mapes issued formal or- ders to the 3d Brigade of detached militia, being about to be discharged from the service of the United States, in which he expresed to the officers, non-com's, and privates the high satisfaction he had constantly derived from their uniform and strict attention to discipline and their able and faithful performance of the duties the Government required and their fellow-citizens expected at their hands, and continued, " The brigade has given a character, a name, and a confidence to the militia which it never before possessed."


On March 22, 1816, Striker was promoted to the rank of Major in the 82nd Regt., 3d Brigade, com- manded by Lieut. Col. Joseph D. Fay, and in regi- mental orders issued at this time, his former Colonel (van Hook) expressed himself in the warmest terms of Capt. Striker's "soldierly conduct and gentlemanly demeanor" while under his command. Promotion to the Lieut .- colonelcy of the same regiment followed, April 24, 1818. He reached the grade of Brigadier in 1828 and rose to the rank of Maj .- General in Feb., 1837. A "grand military ball " was tendered to him at the Apollo Rooms in 1846, at which he was presented with a service of plate, a gold medal, and a pair of "Revolu- tionary boots." The Sun of April 4th reported that the beauty and fashion of the city graced the occasion. London Punch printed a facetious diatribe anent the boots, with a picture thereof, which filled a page of that noted periodical.


Col. Striker, after his marriage to the daughter of


392


The new Dork of Desterday


Capt. McDougal in 1818, continued to live at the Bay. The following year, his grandfather, John Hopper, died and then he removed to the latter's residence, "Rose- vale," on the Hudson at the foot of what later became 53d Street. It was approached by the lane which his great-grandfather laid out from his homestead at the Bloomingdale Road and which ended at the mansion. It took the name Striker's Lane thereafter. Entrance was obtained to the grounds through two stone posterns leading to a road which divided around a circle lying immediately before the house and led to the family barns and stables. The old place was set in the forest with the gardens to the east, and on the west, massive trees to the water's edge. Trees such as were not deemed to be found within miles of the city towered overhead. Majestic peacocks guarded the portal and strutted about in august grandeur. Looking from the broad veranda, a superb river view met the gaze and in the immediate foreground one saw a goldfish pond, surrounded by a railing on which sat plump Muscovy drakes, which flew at one's approach and struck the water with a resounding splash. Descending the steps to and beyond the pond, winding walks, under the trees and by rocks and wild flowers and bushes, finally brought one to the billiard house, where an old-fashioned table, so large as to leave barely space to promenade around it, occupied the lower story. Upstairs were garnered the fruits and nuts for winter consumption. Continuing the walk, still un- der grand natural trees and along narrow meandering paths, the bath-house was reached, situated in a cove over the sandy floor of which flowed a stream whose sources were the springs in the pond above. The old soldier was a man of taste and culture and the con-


393


Among Old=time Families


servatories were his great pleasure. The name "Rose- vale" was doubly appropriate, as a large share of the enclosed grounds were given to rose culture, the re- mainder being a valley sloping precipitously in places but generally gradually towards the river, the mansion itself being the line of demarkation.


Here the General maintained an unbounded hospi- tality and dwelt some fifty years, constantly adding to the charms of his garden, his particular hobby. His numerous friends and admirers flocked around him and the abode was the centre of hospitality for leading men of the nation. On one of the window panes in the parlor appeared the names of Lafayette, Kossuth, and Clay, scratched thereon with a diamond during their respective visits. "Old Bullion" Benton, Webster, Greeley, General Scott and other military celebrities, with a host of lesser lights, were welcome here. At the funerals of two of his distinguished friends during 1852 he acted first as aide in the procession in honor of the obsequies of Clay, July 20th and as pall-bearer for Webster he represented one of the then 3 1 States of the Union, Nov. 16th. The General was a conspicuous fig- ure in the New York of his day, strikingly like his old friend Winfield Scott. It has been said of him that he united in his person the gentleman and the soldier, the high-spirited convivialist, the good husband, the tender father, the kind friend-in short all the qualities that were centred in the gentleman of the olden time. He departed this life at his home on April 15, 1868. The Rev. Dr. Hutton and Domine van Aken officiated at the ceremonies held there, when a vast concourse thronged the spacious mansion and lined the lane and the street as the procession passed and his remains were interred in Trinity Cemetery, where a plot had


394


The new Dork of Desterday


been prepared owing to the contemplated demolition of his ancestral church and the consequent abandon- ment of the family vault. At one of the last services held there, his funeral discourse was preached by Do- mine van Aken, which was published in full in the Christian Intelligencer. In recognition of his active participation in the construction of the defences on Bloomingdale Heights, the descendants of those who aided therein, as represented by the Daughters of 1812, inscribed his name on the tablet placed on one of the buildings at Columbia University. He did not simply stand and wait, but served, and on Milton's theory, merits the honor. His son, James Alexander, who died July 19, 1900 the last of his generation, retained the family connection with the church of his grand- father, and was married by its minister.
