The exact year in which Mr. Livingston emigrated is not known; it is known, however, that he was here as early as February, 1676, as we find, at that time, that he was secretary of the commissaries who then superintended the affairs of Albany, Schenectady, and the parts adjacent, 1 which office he held till July, 1686, when Albany being made a city, the board of commissaries was dissolved. He was appointed to proceed with his brother-in-law, Peter Schuyler, to New York, to obtain the charter 2 ...of the city from Gov. Dongan, under which he was afterwards made town clerk. We find soon after, the additional office of farmer of the excise annexed to his clerkship.
Livingston It was on the 18th of July, 1683, that the lands then overshadowed by a Manor, dense wilderness, extending along the east side of the Hudson river, from Roeloffe Jansen's kill north, lying in three plains, called Ne-kan-kook, Hick-ua, Wic-quas- ka-ka, and two or three other small plains or flats, comprehending about two hundred acres, and all the country, comprising about eighteen hundred acres, between a small creek nearly opposite Kals-kill, called by the Indians Wack-an-ek-as-seck, and also a tract to the south of Roeloffe Jansen's kill, by the river side, called by them Swas-ka- hamp-ka, comprising two hundred acres, and the adjoining lands running back into the woods, making in all about two thousand acres, was purchased of Ot-tow-o-way, Tat-ta-em, Schatt, Ot hoot, Man-et-e-po, and two squaws named Wa-wamtts-a-waw and Tham-ar-an-ac-qua, in behalf of themselves and their relatives, by Robert Livingston, and this purchase was confirmed by Thomas Dongan, lieutenant-governor and vice- admiral, under James, duke of Yorke, and of New Yorke and its dependencies in Ame- rica, on the 4th of November, 1684.
