My Great Grandfather was Matthew H CUYLER.
What proof do you have that Matthew was the son of Aaron (III) b 8/3/1807 d 2/2/1888.Aaron (III) was the son of Aaron (jr) b1775 who married Lucy CUYLER b 1783.
It was Aaron(III) who apparently changed the name from Van Curler To Cuyler
According to one of Matthews daughters Cora(CUYLER) Matthews "He came from the east as 4 brothers"
I believe the 4 brothers were Charles, Abram, Matthew, &Rufus.
Matthew was living With the NIPPER family according to the 1850 census.
I would appreciate any additional information you may have.

Hi, I, too, am looking for info on Matthew Cuyler, as he is my gggrandfather. I believe you may be directly related to me, as my grandfather was Clarence & my father is Martin Cuyler. Just any info on who Matthew's real dad is would be helpful, as I've come to a roadblock. I did find Laurin Hills heritage all the way back to 1548, but have also come to a roadblock on Ida Letta Hawleys lineage. Anything would be helpful. Thank you, Kathy Cuyler Austin

My Grand father Charles (b 1877) & your Grand father Curtis (b 1875) were brothers. I can not make a direct connection between Matthew & Aaron But, I believe they were son & father.
The story that I have is that Aaron (b 1775) about 1840 changed the family name from Van Curler to Cuyler which was his Mothers name.
If I can be of any additioal please advise.

Hey again. been looking all day for anything I could find & nothing still. Seems that I can't even find Lucy's father or mother. At Rootsweb it says she was married a 2nd time, but didn't list who, & that Matthew came of that marriage. This is so confusing, as the Van Curlers took the name of Cuyler as that was Lucy's maiden name? I got all this at rootsweb.com. I started looking as my family did a report years ago on the Cuylers. They even went to Cuyler New York, lol. In it, there's a page that says there may be some Indian blood somewhere, but haven't found anything to that nature yet. Guess I'll keep looking. Thanks for the info you did give me. Kathy

I believe Lucy was the mother of Aaron (b1807).and was the wife of Aaron (Jr) (b1775) Aaron & Lucy had at least 7 sons & 4 daughters I have the namews of 3 males & 2 females.

The information I have Is Arent Van Curler (b1612/1620) established the family line in America.But he had no legitimate childern He apparently had 2 childern 1M &1F by a Indian Squaw.the female was named Tall Eagle I believe The male Benoni (b1652/1663) Van Curler/Corlear established the line as we know it to day?

I have additional informaton if you would like to send me your e Mail address I will thr to copy & send it to you.

I also believ I have a picture of Clarence's Family taken about 1946 which should show your father

Hi again, Ken. My email is: thebestwildangel@yahoo.com. So you say there were 2 Indian children born to van curler? Just curious as take a close look at my grandad Clarence, you can clearly see the indian blood & I've been asked myself, if I've got Indian blood & always answer yes, as Curtis's wife, May Hills claims to be 1/4 Shawnee, but that's another genealogical line I'm pursuing to another dead end. Write me with the info if you can & thank you for all your help. Kathy

What is your email address? mine is dishingmcfilm@aol.com Aarons son Matthew H Culyer was my GGrandfather. His daughter Cora Cuyler (Hendrickson) was my Greatgrandmother. I remember when we asked her what nationality we were she would only say Yankee. It is starting to make sense now. THANK YOU so much. Mark Bias
