[Adults] The Women of Schuyler Mansion: Thanks to Hamilton: An American Musical, the three eldest Schuyler sisters, Angelica, Eliza (Elizabeth), and Peggy (Margaret) are now household names. But did you know there were more than three sisters? The Women of Schuyler Mansion explores the lives of their mother, Catharine van Rensselaer Schuyler, and all five Schuyler sisters. The presentation also explores new research into the lives and identities of women of African ancestry enslaved by the Schuylers.
