By Edwin B. Livingston

A 1910 publication, The Livingstons of Livingston Manor; being the history of that branch of the Scottish house of Callendar which settled in the English province of New York during the reign of Charles the Second; and also including an account of Robert Livingston of Albany, "The nephew," a settler in the same province and his principal descendants. This book provides a rich history of one of the most important families in the early history of New York State as well as the fledgling nation.

Among the Livingston papers formerly belonging to the Viscounts of Kilsyth, and still preserved in the charter room at Colzium House, Stirlingshire, are some deeds relating to the Scottish ancestors of the American branches of this once noble and powerful family. The most interesting and important of these ancient documents is one bearing date 15th March, 1560,¹ and which had been executed at Callendar House, the principal seat of the Lords Livingston—afterwards created Earls of Linlithgow—in that county.
