So many exciting pieces on display at @AlbanyInstitute, but this bracelet given by Dirck Ten Broeck (son of Abraham of @TenBroeckACHA) to his new wife, Cornelia Stuyvesant, is one of my favorites.

Back in the 1700's, water mains were commonly made from wood. Today, we removed this abandoned wooden water main located at Broadway and Beaver street during an excavation at the location. #AlbanyHistory

Sorry about that boat, Dirck... 😅⛵️ Maybe it's the boat Rensselaer transported his paint down the Hudson in in 1803: "This morning Genr. Ten Broeck informed me that your horses which went from hence were drowned, and that you had lost paint, oil, etc."

[Ten Broeck Mansion @TenBroeckACHA]

@SchuylerMansion From 7/12/1804 letter (mostly abt Hamilton's death): "PS: Brother Rensselaer S. borrowed my only great boat, an excellent good one. Rather I have repeatedly sent for it, and written to him while here about it, for I seldom saw him. Yet he has never returned it. I want a new one."

[Ten Broeck Mansion @TenBroeckACHA]

@SchuylerMansion Dirck is still wondering whatever happened to that boat that he let his brother-in-law borrow!

[Ten Broeck Mansion @TenBroeckACHA]

@SchuylerMansion OH MY GOSH, the cuteness!
