Louisa Lee Schuyler, the eldest daughter of George Lee Schuyler and Eliza (Hamilton) Schuyler, became a patron of the New-York Historical Society in 1925, in which year she presented in her own name and that of her sister Georgina (who had died two years before) eleven portraits of members of the Schuyler family ranging in date from the early 18th to the late 19th centuries, giving the Society a valuable collection of the likenesses of one of the most prominent families of New York.
