"[12][22] The relationship between Schuyler and Hamilton quickly grew; even after he left Morristown a month later on a short mission to negotiate a prisoners exchange.

[23] After completing the prisoner exchange negotiations, Hamilton returned to Morristown, where Schuyler's father had arrived in his capacity as representative of the Continental Congress.

[27] After a short honeymoon at the Pastures, her childhood home in Albany, New York, Alexander Hamilton returned to the Continental Army and the Revolutionary War in early January 1781.

[28] Soon, however, Washington and Alexander Hamilton had a falling out, and the newlywed couple moved, first back to Philip Schuyler's house in Albany, then to a new home across the river from the New Windsor headquarters.

[29] There, Schuyler busied herself in creating a home for them and in aiding Hamilton with his political writings, including parts of his 31-page letter to Robert Morris, in which Alexander communicated his extensive understanding of government finance, which he later employed as the nation's first Secretary of the Treasury during Washington's presidency.

[31] Meanwhile, the Revolutionary War began raging close to her home, when a group of British soldiers stumbled upon her residence at the Pastures, seeking supplies.

According to some accounts, the family was spared from any losses thanks to her sister Peggy, who told the soldiers that her father had gone to town to get help, which caused them to flee from the area.

[32] After the siege of Yorktown, a decisive Franco-American victory which led the British to recognize their defeat in the war, Hamilton rejoined Schuyler in Albany, where they remained for almost another two years prior to relocating to New York City in late 1783.

Hamilton heard of Earl's predicament and asked his wife if she might be willing to sit for him, to allow him to make some money and eventually buy his way out of prison, which he subsequently did.

[37] In October that year, Angelica wrote to Hamilton, "All the graces you have been pleased to adorn me with fade before the generous and benevolent action of my sister in taking the orphan Antle [sic] under her protection.

"[43] Schuyler also continued to aid her husband throughout his political career, serving as an intermediary between him and his publisher when he was writing The Federalist Papers,[44] copying out portions of his defense of the Bank of the United States,[45] and attending to him so he could read Washington's Farewell Address out loud to her as he wrote it.

[47] While in Philadelphia, around November 24, 1794, Schuyler suffered a miscarriage[48] in the wake of her youngest child falling extremely ill and her worries over Alexander's absence during his armed suppression of the Whiskey Rebellion.

Schuyler evidently did not believe the charges when they were first leveled against her husband: John Church, her brother-in-law, on July 13, 1797, wrote to Hamilton that "it makes not the least Impression on her, only that she considers the whole Knot of those opposed to you to be [Scoundrels].

[56] Despite her advanced pregnancy and her previous miscarriage of November 1794,[48] her initial reaction to her husband's disclosure of his past affair was to leave Alexander in New York and join her parents in Albany, where their son William Stephen was born on August 4, 1797.

She returned to her marital house in New York City in early September 1797, in part because the local medical doctor had been unable to cure their eldest son Philip, who had accompanied her to Albany and contracted typhus.

After being shot on the dueling field, Philip was brought to Angelica and John Church's house, where he died after 14 hours with both of his parents by his side through the night.

When Schuyler went away attending her mother's funeral in 1803, Alexander wrote to her from the Grange Estate, telling her:I am anxious to hear of your arrival at Albany and shall be glad to be informed that your father and all of you are composed.

Two years later, on July 11, 1804, Alexander was mortally wounded by his foe, then U.S. vice president Aaron Burr, in the Burr-Hamilton Duel in Weehawken, New Jersey.

Prior to the duel, Hamilton, seemingly anticipating his possible death, wrote his wife two letters, telling her:The consolations of Religion, my beloved, can alone support you; and these you have a right to enjoy.

[67][68] In 1798, Schuyler had accepted her friend Isabella Graham's invitation to join the descriptively named Society for the Relief of Poor Widows with Small Children that had been established the previous year.

[73] The New York Orphan Asylum Society continues to exist as a social service agency for children, today called Graham Windham.

[74] Schuyler also defended her late husband against his critics in a variety of ways following his death, including by supporting his claim of authorship of George Washington's Farewell Address and by requesting an apology from James Monroe over his accusations of financial improprieties.

Schuyler wanted a full official apology from Monroe, which he did not give until they met in person to talk about Hamilton shortly before his passing.

[77] Schuyler was so devoted to Hamilton's writings that she wore a small package around her neck containing the pieces of a sonnet that Alexander wrote for her during the early days of their courtship.

Angelica was also laid to rest at Trinity, in the Livingstons' private vault, and Schuyler's eldest son Philip was buried in an unmarked grave near the churchyard.
