Angelica Schuyler Church
John Barker Church had given supplies to the Americans during the Revolutionary War.  At the time, he told them they could pay him later.  Because the American government realized they could not pay him at all, they gave him land in New York State instead.  They gave him 100,000 acres on the Genesee River.  Angelica and John's son Philip Church designed and built a town there, Angelica, New York, named after his mother.
