“He actively pursued her even though she was married with four kids” THAT IS SUCH A THOMAS JEFFERSON THING TO DO

_"everyone had a crush on angelica"_ *sO reLaTaBLe*

"But, Eliza was crafty and managed to survive Hamiltons debt with the help of her friends who made a very secret trust fund." Wait... "I'm a trust fund, baby, you can trust me."

Fun Fact about Eliza While she had been extremely heartbroken over the deaths of her husband, Son, both her sisters, and her daughter losing her mind, she took care of 6 other children, started an orphanage and kept her husband’s legacy going while she was taking care of 6 kids and was in debt, honestly what an amazing woman she was.

So many johns dang John Laurens John Adams John Chruch John Jay

Elizabeth Schuyler: LOOK AROUND LOOK AROUND AT HOW LUCKY WE ARE TO BE *ALIVE* RIGHT NOW Also Elizabeth Schuyler: My younger sister died 2 of my sons died my huband cheated on me and died my mom died my father died ... LOOK AT WHERE WE AR-

Work work John church Work work Hamilton And Stephen The schuyler husbands

I really wish Theodosia was a character in Hamilton. She sounds like an absolutely amazing woman!

I feel so bad for Eliza. Goodness.... It was death after death after death!

I live near Trinity Church, where Angelica, Eliza, and Ham were buried. I bring flowers every month to their graves. Though in the winter they don't really last!

Eliza has gone through the most Son died Her sister Peggy died Her sister Angelica died Husband died Husband cheated on her She told everyone’s stories but her own. Her family is basically corrupted and I’m here crying over my Hampstead dying yet she basically has her whole life dying.. But we should all the job of telling her story..

So that's why Peggy stopped being in the musical...

"Sassy, sarcastic, and vain" Same fam.

Dang, Maria was 15 when she got married??? wow time has changed people.

“While She was told to be extremely beautiful, she was described as sassy, sarcastic, and vein.” Me: well, I got three things in common with Peggy.

What did Theodosia say when she was cold? *Burrrrrr* 😏 IM SORRY 😂

Peggy died on my birthday.........well except for the year

Great video, very well done, but i my opinion, you kind of misrepresented one Miss Maria Lewis. (more kind of glazed over) Okay so, basically, what I know: Maria grew up in a poor family and was married off basically as soon as she was able to. Her family arranged a marriage with James Reynolds, who was about TWENTY YEARS older than her. He was rich, though, so that was good enough for her family. While James was rich, and Maria did then get some of the money for her family, she was not allowed to manage it, but, apparently, she wished to give it to her family. During the Hamilton affair, she was 23. In letters, while barely reading between the lines it is VERY obvious that the whole thing was planned by James. For 10 years, she was abused very harshly by James, and had many ACTUAL SCARS. During the scandal, before James sent the letter, she sent her own, warning Alexander that James had a plan to get money. The basics of the note was 'I feel terrible that this would ever happen and I'm just terrified for my daughter. If I could never be born, I feel that would be for the best.' When 23 year-old Maria approached 34 year-old Hamilton, according to him, it wasn't at all obviously seductive, and you would be mistaken to believe that it was an immediately sexual relationship, as she had at least three separate meetings with the man before any intercourse. He also didn't immediately give her money either. She only got the funds after telling Alexander of her troubles of not being allowed money from her husband, and him being verbally and physically abusive. After being told this, Alex gave her money not for sex, but just for the purpose of getting any sort of money for food and/or divorce. (In the words of Alexander: "Some conversation ensued from which it was quickly apparent that other than pecuniary consolation would be acceptable") She actually did use some of this for part of a less-than-average price divorce fund. Legally speaking, yes, Maria was a pawn, as James was in court for this. Also, it was not the Southern Motherfucking Democratic-Republicans who forced Alexander Hamilton to reveal the affair, but James Reynolds himself. James was jailed for a scheme dealing with unpaid back wages that were meant for Revolutionary War veterans. He accused Alexander of being the real criminal. Doing this, he knew he was forcing Alexander to either admit (falsely) to the crime, or (truthfully) to the affair. He chose the one that wouldn't get him a sentence. If, just by looking it up, anyone is somehow not convinced of James abusing Maria, please remember that she was able to be divorced on the charges. In the 1790's. Without being super rich. After being divorced, she and Aaron Burr kept in touch. Despite her lack of education, Aaron was pretty cool with her, and actually treated her like a human, not as an uneducated woman. (Aaron Burr was actually one hell of a feminist) After the Reynolds pamphlet, in which Alexander made the mistake of mentioning MANY times the full name of the woman he had an affair with. Because of this, after escaping an abusive relationship, she still got verbal abuse hurled at her if she dared to go outside. Thanks a lot, dingus. Anyway, she moved to England with her new husband to escape this, and while there are no divorce papers, or any proof of divorce from her second husband, her divorce was assumed, given that she came back to the US with a different husband. Despite Maria's misfortune, all she really wanted was for her daughter, Susan, to get a good education, but she couldn't teach her herself, so her daughter, as a woman, in a family that wasn't rich, had to get into a boarding school. She, however, managed this, because of one William Eustis, who had connections in a Boston boarding school for formal education. Guess who petitioned him to help Susan and Maria? Aaron Burr. Yay (god, I hope someone read this, this took forever to write down. If you want to know anything else about Maria, seriously, just ask, I probably know the answer.)

"She was buried in the same cemetery as Alexander Hamilton" Me: okay google, where was Hamilton buried? I need to go

Me, the whole video: "How many pages is this notebook?!"

I guess everyone is HELPLESS for Angelica Edit: OMG OVER 400 LIKES OMG THANK YOU SOOOOOOO MUCH! Double edit: OH MY POTATOES LOOK AT ALL THOSE LIKES THANK YOU EVERYONE!!

HoW dArE yOu CaLl AaRoN bUrR oNlY a SiX *he’s at least a 6.2*

"None of her letters survived" because she burned them, duh

So Eliza really was a perfect angel.

I 👏🏻 studied 👏🏻 Peggy 👏🏻 and 👏🏻 boy 👏🏻 is 👏🏻 she 👏🏻 cool

Burr: Shes married Alex: Ok? The Lazy Snail: *breaks in* MARRIED TO a British soilder

everyone says how peggy was left out in the musical, but like the other (what was it, 9?) siblings werent even mentioned

You forgot the fact that Maria had personally warned Hamilton that James would blackmail him

A.Ham : ANGELICA I NEED SOME DIRT Angelica : what kind of dirt? A.Ham : smelly. Angelica : got u fam,Jefferson sleeps with no under wear and has hundreds of slaves A.Ham : Couldn't you have led with the slaves? Angelica : no.

AARON BURR WAS GOOD LOOKING oops, I am thinking of leslie odom jr., not aaron burr

Okay, I understand everybody kind of hates Aaron Burr because he literally murdered Alexander Hamilton, but he actually suffered SO much death in his life. - his parents died when he was only two - the grandparents that took care of him died of yellow fever her shortly after taking him in - later in life, his wife, Theodosia, died due to stomach cancer -His loving daughter, Theodosia, dies at sea -His only grandson died of malaria -his only sister and sibling died extremly young Yeesh

When you want to be Angelica but you're a Peggy #ohwell

The world needs more Peggy's or only Peggys.

Can we all just take a moment to thank Lin-Manuel Miranda for not only making a musical masterpiece, but for making Alexander Hamilton and his amazing life story more well known? And for showing just how much of a badass Elizabeth Schuyler really was? God bless you, Lin-Manuel Miranda. I wanna read the biography it’s based on now.

There were a lot of Johns and James back then but the someone decided “Oh I had a baby! We’ll call him Hercules!”

ALSO IM LEARNING SO MUCH ABOUT HAMILTON'S CHILDREN WOAH THANK YOU

Peggy is the most relatable character in Hamilton considering she's the unlikeable sister just like me ha

4:42 “she was more spotlight shy” ....... *I HAVE NEVER BEEN THE ONE TO TRY AND GRAB THE SPOTLIGHT*

*"I interview every soldier who fought by your side."* *"I rely on Angelca. While she's alive we tell your story"* *"I raise funds in D.C. for the Washington Monument"* *"I speak out against slavery,you could have done so much if you only had time."* *"Oh. Can I show you what I'm most proudest of?: I established the first private orphanage in New York City. I help raise hundreds of children,I get to see them growing up"* *"And when my time is up,have I done enough? Will they tell my story?"* They did Elzabeth,they did. You did so much. You are "Best of Wives and Best of Woman".

some other beautiful awesome american women are Dolley Madison, Martha Washington, Sally Hemmings, and (my personal absolute f a v o r i t e) Adrienne de Lafayette. brief summaries of all of them: (note: brief is an understatement, I'm a writer) Dolley Madison married James Madison married in 1794 and actually, they would not have met if it wasn't for Aaron Burr. He was originally going to try to marry her but he pulled an Angelica and introduced her to James, hence their wonderful marriage. Dolley is most famous for going back into the White House as it was burning as the British attacked in the War of 1812 to rescue the portrait of George Washington that is now on the dollar bill. She married once before Jamie Boy and her husband and youngest son were killed by a sickness. - Martha Washington was, obviously, the wife of George Washington. Martha could be compared to that of Abigail Adams in what she did. She served soldiers during the Rev. War and helped them heal after injuries as well as feeding them. ( i dont have as much info about her as the other gals because i dont research her as much as the other gals) - Sally Hemmings whoo she's a doozy. Her story is kind of awkward, as she was taken advantage of by jefferson and she had i believe five kids with him? At the time Jefferson was not married since his wife, Martha, had recently died and I'm guessing he was desperate. Sally and Jefferson's eldest daughter, Patsy, were actually good childhood friends, but that relationship fell apart after Patsy found out about her father's affair with her. (I read a book about some of the kids she had with tjeffs and i found it super interesting. most of this information came from that book.) - (OH BOI) Adrienne de Lafayette was a w e s o m e. She literally sent her only son to a country she had never been to, watched her mother, grandmother, and sister be guillotined in front of her, and be shunned by her own country just to be imprisoned so she could be with her husband. This girl literally did a n y t h i n g for Lafayette. She and Lafayette married when she was fourteen and he was sixteen, and when Lafayette was nineteen he went off to fight in the Rev. War. I believe he returned home for a brief time to convince Adrienne to name their only son after George Washington. 10/10 dad of the year. Adrienne and her two daughters stayed with Lafayette in a horrible prison for three years while their son was sent for his own safety to stay in America. She died with Lafayette at her side in 1807, with her last words to her husband being "Je suis toute à vous" (I am all yours). DEDICATION. - just sort of wanted to rant about my favorite historical women

Is it just funny how lin-manuel Miranda was helping victims in Puerto Rico from hurricane Maria and right after the song Hurricane the Reynolds pamphlet plays... Where he has the affair... With Maria Reynolds... Haha...

There’s a book called “Hamilton and Peggy!” About Peggy’s life. I’m not even kidding.

“How she had HIGH HOPES” *Brendon Urie has entered the chat*

so the Schylur sisters should reallu go like this... ANGELIA ELIZA AND MARGARITA

Eliza is my favorite Schuyler sister because 4 words She was a boss.

I’m watching this when I should be working on a project about Eliza Schuyler *i know, I will use this video for it probably*

title: “the women of Hamilton” me: “WHERE IS JOHN TURTLE LAURENS?!”

Draw My Life: Women of Hamilton!

U forgot that Aaron Burr proposed to Angelica!

You: Were gonna start off with of course Angelica,Eliza- Me: AND PEGGY! sorry

Hamilton was a bad husband I mean.. Angelica - her own sister?!? Maria - some girl!? John Laurens - HIS BEST FRIENd THAT HE LITERALLY INVITED TO A THRESoME

I've seen angelicas portrait. That neck

Angelicaaa Eliiiizaaaaa The schuyler sisters, FUDGE I FORGOT PEG- Peggy: ITS NOT FAIIIIRIRRRRR EVERYONE FORGETS ME SURE IM THE YOUNGEST BUT THAT CANT MEAN IM USELESS PEOPLE!

Peggy is lucky. Not only does she get more attention than Eliza, the title character's wife, but the other 12 siblings didn't even make it into the musical.

Who else just wanted to know about Peggy? No, just me Okay

Poor Peggy is such an underdog I cant help but root for her even when all I knowabout her is that shes a Schyuler sister #peggylivesmatter

*and pEGGY*

*A girl that is left-handed, can write AND draw good!? We need to watch out! She's to powerful! 😂*

She Was Fluent In French! *Lafayette Approves*

James Reynolds had Maria sleep around in hope of money and blackmail to get money, he would use the threat of taking or even hurting their daughter Susan Reynolds as a way of getting her to do what he demanded. she went to Hamilton originally because her husband wanted to be able to use the sexual relationship against him. Hamilton and Maria's relationship went far enough to where she didn't want him to he affected by James's plan and sent him a letter before James's letter warning him about what James was planning on doing and that she was sorry

With Angelica's intelligence I'd probably fall for her as well.

*Im never satisfied before I met Alexander Hamilton* GURL YOU HAVE A HUSBAND!!!

**o yeah eliza's father died too** EVERYONE THAT ELIZA LOVED WERE DYING OMG THATS SAD

My older sister is named Angelica and she was born on march 13th 😨

I kinda don't like how you shadowed burr as "okay" he was actually a HUGE feminist. He was really really smart and cared a lot about his family. He was a careful dude yeah. He was quiet about most things and cautious but he did have beliefs. Just no one recognized him for them. He believed in equal women rights as much as Alexander believed in the national bank or something else. He would often tell his daughter that she could do anything and he really was a good guy. When he killed Alexander he felt absolutely terrible. It weighed him down, a lot. He always believed that Alexander was his friend but just lost his cool after the years and years of arguing with Alex. Who could blame him? Alexander was a stuffy guy most of the time and burr just had had enough of it. So honestly he was amazing just like Theo and I believe burr was perfect for Theo.

Angelica, WORK WORK, Eliza, AND PEGGY

Well, let's just say, they all grew to *blow us all away.*

many people have a crush on me, I guess I am angelica

WOMALTON: a Hamilton based musical Coming in 2018

5:12 "Im re-reading your letters and watching them BUUUUUURRRNNNNNNN"

Ever seen a portrait of Eliza? **shows you a pic of a cinnamon roll**

your drawings tho

Soooooo.......in Helpless he likes that Eliza is helpless. In Say No to This, Maria said she was helpless......... Moral of the story:Hamilton likes helpless women.

I searched up Maria Reynolds letters and i laughed so hard at the spelling, i feel bad now xdd Heres an letter by Maria to Hamilton ---- "Col. Hamilton Dear Sir I have not tim to tell you the cause of my present troubles only that Mr. has rote to you this morning and I know not wether you have got the letter or not and he has swore that If you do not answer It or If he dose not se or hear from you to day he will write Mrs. Hamilton he has just Gone oute and I am a Lone I think you had better come here one moment that you May know the Cause then you will the better know how to act Oh my God I feel more for you than myself and wish I had never been born to give you so mutch unhappisness do not rite to him no not a Line but come here soon do not send or leave any thing in his power"

There's actually a fair amount that my father may not have loved my mother, a tragic but true fact.

*writes down when they were born on the calendar to later on celebrate a l o n e*

Can we just appreciate Eliza being so strong? She seriously was so strong loosing so many people and paying off debt and raising many kids who kept on his legacy. She really is an amazing person who has been through so much grief and is such a light in dark times and experiences.

I’m a year late to this video but it’s so interesting!! I LOVE how you talked about Theodosia she was such an amazing woman I can’t believe we didn’t hear about her more in the musical! Honestly I think Theodosia is such a role model and one of my favorite ladies in history so thanks for including her and sharing her story! Because she’s not just Burr’s wife she is so much more!!

I'm a simple person. I see Angelica, I FREAKING USE A CHAINSAW TO CLICK THE VIDEO

they were all pure babes

Omg 97 is so old!! Especially for that time dang eliza

For anyone wondering why Maria Reynolds' portrait isn't on the thumbnail, it's simple. Maria never had nearly enough money for her own portrait. Which is also why people on tiktok just use pictures of Jasmin from the musical while talking about Maria.

7:33 All of Eliza's children were successful.. Well, Phillip Hamilton died at 19, and Angelica Hamilton went insane after he died.

So you know how all of the women in the musical have a color that they wear which becomes the color people associate them with, right? And we never see Theodosia in the musical, but I've always associated purple with her for some reason? Anyway, i was reminded of that when i saw that you colored her wearing purple lol.

I accidentally turned on the captions and it said "Angelica, Eliza and Peggy Skyler. Mariah Reynolds. Feodosia /"

the part about eliza isn’t actually true. it took them 2 years to get back in touch after the winter ball. after that she was supposed to get married to henry livingston. she escaped the wedding after hamilton traveled for three days straight and got shot in the process by British soldiers to talk to elizas parents for consent to marry their daughter. after hearing his story they agreed and called off the wedding with henry and they got married that winter.

HEY POPE Take Eliza as a saint for my (and Ham fans) sanity

yay you didn't forget peggy

“Monroe, you suck, leave.” Eliza the savage 101

This was amazing! I now look at Hamilton (the musical) in a totally different perspective now. The art was really good, and you were so good at explaining each of their histories! I really want to watch more of your videos now because you rock!

Can you do a video like this for the Hamilton children

yay a new video!!! very interesting and informational. i like how you presented the information and also i like your voice?

Her: Says Angelica Eliza and Peggy. Me: Angelica~ Eliza~~ and PEGGY

i really like this alot. it broke my heart learning about eliza through the musical and i hear alot of people get really curious of Eliza role as a home making... its honestly incredible how women at that time as home makers while supporting their husband's active roles. and they knew their place in a way, despite knowing that women had so much more potential to be educated, and they taught their children to understand why its so important. So its very nice to learn about these women who in history makes them seem like just suppoorters of their husband, but they were very much the rock and reminder oand served as the backbone of history. it just so happens women didnt have the same voice in history, but it makes it all the more beautiful once we get the chance to hear about how women in all their efforts, didnt fight for recognition but worked in the background to serve as they knew what was more important, the future kids that would inherit whatever their parents left them.

Thank you for touching the stories of all these women in Hamilton! :) Definitely appreciate it!

Poor Peggy...

I've seen this video pop up everywhere and decided that I would watch it now. I'm glad I did because I love Hamilton in general but never really knew much about the women of Hamilton. I love the way you presented this and drew it. Thank you for educating me on this :)

I love your drawings, and point, it’s so clear and informative!

I actually can't stop watching This is REALLY interesting
