The DeLanceys and the Kanes traveled in the same social circles in the late 1700's. That is the DeLanceys that remained in the US (John, Oliver, Warren DeLancey) or returned (John Peter DeLancey)after the American Revolution. When a Kane daughter married John Jay's son, they became cousins-in-laws.
Gov Yates married 3 times. It is said that his first marriage was for love (Ann Ellice) -- his 2nd for money (Maria Kane) -- and the 3rd for political ties (Elizabeth DeLancey). He had 3 daughters -- 1 by Maria Kane -- and 2 by Elizabeth DeLancey.
His 3rd daughter, Jane Josepha, married Samuel Neil of NY. They had several children including an Ann, Edward, and Joseph who carried DeLancey as their middle name. I haven't been able to find much on Samuel Neil but I did find an obit that stated he died suddenly leaving a young wealthy widow.
Hope this helps.
