garre ; and Eliza, Peter William Livingston. With his brother-in-law, Peter William Livingston, M. DeLabigarre had business dealings concerning land. That good will existed between them and their wives, who were sisters, is to be inferred from the fact that Mr. and Mrs. Livingston named one of their sons: Horatio DeLabigarre Livingston. The children of Peter and Margaret (Beekman) DeLabigarre were: Amaryllis Laura; born April 5, baptized April 28, 1796. in the Reformed Dutch Church, New York; baptismal witnesses: Peter William Livingston, Eliza Beekman. Julius Agricola Beekman; born February 25, baptized April 23, 1797, in the Reformed Dutch Church, New York; baptismal witnesses: Isaac Cox, Johanna Beekman. Louisa Maria; born February 12, baptized March 4, 1798, in the Reformed Dutch Church, New York; baptismal witnesses: John F. Cox, Magdaline Beekman. The son, weighted with the name: Julius Agricola Beekman DeLabigarre, was apparently unequal to the burden and is supposed to have died in youth. The two daughters survived and lived to be—one seventy-five and one eighty years old. Their home in their later years was in Brooklyn and official records of King's County6- show that Amaryllis Laura DeLabigarre died unmarried May 31, 1871, while her sister—who had married Philip N. Searle—died March 31, 1878. Mrs. Searle had had one child, Amaryllis Laura De Labigarre Searle, who pre-deceased her in Brooklyn on February 8, 1864. With Mrs. Searle's death in 1878 the family of Peter DeLabigarre became extinct. By her will Mrs. Searle devised a portrait of Chancellor Livingston to her kinswoman, Mrs. Abraham B. Cox. 6.
