Robert J. Livingston was of the old stock of which New Yorkers are so justly proud; a son of Maturin Livingston, once the Recorder of the city; a grandson of Gen. Morgan Lewis, of the Revolutionary Army, and a nephew of Chancellor Livingston. He upheld by his character and services the honorable traditions of his family, and left an enviable record for himself.
He was educated at Yale College; for many years was engaged in business in this city, and on his retirement devoted his time to works of charity and usefulness. He was one of the founders and directors of the Children’s Aid Society and the Home for Incurables; one of the oldest members of the New York Hospital and its President when he died. He left a record that adorns his family name.
