Susan m. 1811 James Fenimore Cooper
I would like to know the ancestry of Susan Augusta Delancey, born about 1790 in New York.I assume she was related to "Col. Delancey" who leased Heathcoate Manor at Scarsdale, N.Y., to the Lewis Angevine family.
According to the IGI records, Susan Augusta Delancey married the writer James Fenimore Cooper January 1, 1811 at Christs Church in Rye, Westchester County, N.Y.Is this correct?Or did she marry at Heathcoate Manor, the Delancey/Heathcoate/Angevine house in Scarsdale, Westchester Co., NY, as some other sources indicate?We do know the Delanceys owned Heathcoate Manor and that Susan and James Fenimore Cooper did live there periodically after the Angevines no longer lived there.(The Angevines were there for four to six generations; four generations actually leased the estate.)
A son of Susan Augusta Delancey, Fenimore Cooper, was christened Nov. 19, 1821 at Christs Church in Rye, N.Y., according tothe IGI records.I don't know about their other children.
The list of her children from the IGI records is:Susan Augusta b. c1813, Paul b. 1815, Elizabeth 1815, Susan Augusta Fenimore Cooper 1817, Caroline Martha 1819, Anne Charlotte 1821, Maria Frances 1823, Fenimore 1825, and Paul Fenimore Cooper 1827.I don't know whether some of these are repetitious (as is common in the IGI records) or whether some children died in infancy and the names were given to younger children.
I descend from a brother of Lewis Angevine, but it seems to be only coincidence that my Angevines also descended from Fenimores.They appear to have been distant cousins to James Fenimore Cooper.
