4. In 1789, Angelica traveled alone to witness George Washington’s inauguration, finding the reality of the new nation more complex and fractious than her idealized memories. She returned permanently to America in 1797, assuming the role of Schuyler family matriarch. Following a period of profound personal tragedy, including the death of Alexander Hamilton, she demonstrated remarkable resilience. In 1806, she ventured into the western New York wilderness to help establish the town named in her honor, returning to her frontier roots. Her surviving correspondence in national libraries documents her life of luxury, intellect, and national influence. (4)
