Ten Eyck family information


John Conover Ten Eyck, U.S. Senator from New Jersey during the American Civil War
Peter Gansevoort Ten Eyck, U.S. Representative from New York

The Ten Eyck family came from the Netherlands to New Amsterdam (today's Manhattan) in the 1630s.[1] The patriarch of the American branch of the family was Coenraedt Ten Eyck, who was originally from Moers. His son Jacob moved to Albany where he was a silversmith. Several family members gained land, wealth and positions of power in Albany, New York City and New Jersey. Their descendants served as Albany Mayor, New York State Senator, U.S. Representatives from New York, and U.S. Senator from New Jersey. The Ten Eycks also formed several businesses, including the Ten Eyck hotel and the Ten Eyck insurance group.

Many streets in the eastern United States, and especially the greater New York City metropolitan area, are named after the family.
