"Jacob Conkling Dutcher and his twin sister Rachel were the youngest of nine children, the last of the family to be born in the old homestead, and probably the last of pure Dutch stock. Anna Van Wart Dutcher died when her twins were born in 1820, and the 76 year old grandmother (the narrrator of the Grandmother's Story reprinted in the Souvenir of the Revolutionary Soldiers' Monument Dedication) brought up the nine children, ages 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14 and just before her death in 1837 sent the youngest, Jacob, to Rutgers to become a Dutch Reform Minister. He is not known to have returned to Irvington except once - in 1843 - when he served as executor of his father's will and delivered the 4th of July Oration. (The picnic must have been rained out that year, for the oration was delivered in the Old Dutch Church of Sleepy Hollow.) It was printed in the Westchester Herald July 18, 1843 and is a rather striking example of mid-nineteenth century rhetoric. It contains an interesting quotation in support of public school and public libraries, and expresses great concern for the 'preservation of the union.' The Dutchers all seem to have migrated to New York City, New Jersey, or Missouri at about the time that the farms of this community began to be translated into estates.

Minister of the South Bound Brook Reformed Church 1868-1880. Rutgers graduation 1843, New Brunswick Seminary 1846, Pastorate in Owasco Reformed Dutch Church, NY 1846-1850; Bergen Neck 1850 - 1854; Bergen Point (5th Street in Bayonne) 1847 - 1857; First Coxsackie 1857 - 1858; Seventh Avenue NYC 1858 - 1859; Sixth Avenue Union Church NYC 1859 - 1863; Old Market Street Church NYC 1863 - 1866; Somers CT Congregational Church 1867 - 1868; Bound Brook 1868 - 1879. Appointed by President Chester Arthur Consul in Port Hope, Ontario, CAN 1880-1887.

"...In the war times of 1861-5, Dr. Dutcher was a strong supporter of the Union, and his services on the rostrum were in much demand. He published a number of works and was a writer of fine literary taste as well as an eloquent speaker...." The likeness of Jacob, Martha, and Jacob, Jr appear in the Warriner Genealogy.

Following is the obituary:

“Many people in this city will regret to learn that Rev. Dr. Dutcher has succumbed at last to the serious illness which has confined him to his room for a long time. He died yesterday afternoon at 2 o’clock.

Rev. Dr. Jacob Conkling Dutcher was born at the old family homestead near Tarrytown, on the banks of the Hudson, in the year 1820. He came of a distinguished Knicerbocker family, was related to the famous Washington Irving and his maternal grandfather played an important part in American history, perhaps doing a good deal in saving the country in one of the most critical periods of the Revolution. This was no less famous a personage than Isaac Van Wart, who with John Paulding and David Williams captured the unforetunate Maj. John Andre on the memorable September 22, 1780, when the Spy was within hailing distance of the British man-of-war Vulture. It was owing to their exertions that Andre was sent to General Washington, with treasonable papers in his possession which gave full particulars of the proposed betrayal of West Point by the infamous Arnold. For the service thus rendered Isaac Van Wart and his two friends received from Congress a silver medal, an annuity of $200 and a farm. A county in Ohio was also named after him, and Dr. Dutcher remembered when the old hero died at a good old age, that he heard guns fired over his grave, amid all the pomp of a military funeral given by order of the government. A monument was erected shortly after, and it stands to this day in Tarrytown to the memory of the brave old soldier who served his time and generation so well. The old homestead is now owned by Tiffany, the New York jeweler, and it is said that her refused $1,000,000 for the (obscured) grounds some time ago. The old fashioned brass knocker is on the door yet, and Mr. Tiffany has given orders that none of the old furniture or fixings shall be disturbed, so as to preserve its antique character.

Dr. Dutcher was brought into public notice when very young. The occasion was in 1821, when the remains of Maj. Andre were disinterred at Tappan to be conveyed for burial to Westminster Abbey, England. A special invitation to be present at the ceremonies was sent to young Dutcher and his relatives as descendants of Isaac Van Wart, but opf course Dr. Dutcher was too young to remember anything about the event.

He was educated at the grammar schools about his native place, and being a particularly studious boy, his friends determined that he ought to receive a liberal education and study for the ministry. Accordingly he was sent to New Brunswick college, N.J., and graduated there with high honors. His last days at college were in the exciting times of ‘Tippecanoe and Tyler, too; and he used to relate with much pride that though he left college a few months too early to give his vote as a college man for old ‘Tippecanoe’ yet he worked enthusiastically in his behalf at every opportunity and took part in the rejoicings that celebrated that great victory.

Dr. Dutcher became a minister of the Reformed Church, and his first call was to the pastorate of a church at Owasco, N.Y. He proved to be an eloquent preacher, and his people at Owasco were sorry when he resigned to accept a call to Bergen Point, N.J. His succeeding pastorates were to churches at Coxsackie, N.Y., Sixth Avenue church, South Church, Old Market Sgtreet church, all in New York City, Bound Brook Church, N.J., and he finally preached one year at Somers, CT. It was a Bound Brook Church that his health began to give way and after leaving Somers, a cessation from his ministerial labors was ordered by his medical advisors.

It was not for long, however, for his intimate friend Frederick Theodore Frelinghujysen, then Secretary of State under President Arthur, had marked him out for office, and in 1882 appointed him our consul at Port Hope, Canada. It was a graceful recognition of Dr. Dutcher’s abilities and made the strong friendship already existing between the two men still stronger. Dr. Dutcher remained at Port Hope until early in 1887, having held office under the late government a little longer gthan is usually the case. At Port Hope, however, his eyesight began to fail and as his trouble became very painful and resulted in a disease of the eye, he had to resign his consulship and return home.

Springfield was the home he chose, on account of its unusually attractive surroundings and because so many of his wife’s earlier associations were formed here. He became a resident in June 1887, had his home on Oak Street, and lived such a quiet, retiring life that very few people in the city are aware that a man with such a history has been one of their near neighbors. Always a strong Republican, his joy was beyond expression when he was told, last summer, that Harrison was nominated for President - the grandson of the man he worked so hard to elect in the stormy days of 1840. Although confined to his bed, he frequently told his firends that one of his last wishes was that he could live to vote for Benjamin Harrison. He joined the Silver Grays by letter, and on the night of the grand republican parade in honor of the victorious election of harrison and Morton, the Phalanx and Engineers gave three hearty cheers for the white haired old man who draped his house on Oak Street with his old storm flag, a relic of his consul days, and waved his hand feebly in reply. One of his last acts was to vote for Harrison and Morton, and more than one prominent member opf the republican club called on him and saw that he was supplied with the straight republican ticket.

After the election was over, Dr. Dutcher’s condition became worse, and a day or two ago his medical advisers feared that he could not recover. Yesterday afternoon it was felt that the ccrisis was at hand, and at 2 o’clock he expired, apparently without much suffering. Dr. Dutcher was twice maried, his first wife being Margaretta Ayres. Four children were born of this marriage, William, Mary, Simeon and Margaretta A Dutcher, all of whom now live at New York. After the death of his first wife, he married Martha M. Warriner in 1857, a Springfield lady. Two children were born of this marriage, Jacob C. and Annie M Dutcher, now dead.

In the war time of 1861, Dr. Dutcher was one of the many eloquent republican orators in great request in New York City, and his speeches were always applauded to the echo. In 1874, he published in New York a charming little volume of sketches about his life on ‘The Old Home by the River.’ The book met with a ready sale, and is esteemed by a wide circle of friends for its well drawn pictures of local life and scenery by the Hudson. He also published a volume of sermons entitled ‘The Prodigal Son’ and other pictures from New Testament history. He also has an unpublished volume in manuscript upon philosophical subjects and an oration on the life of Washington. The latter he has delivered to large audiences on several occasions. His has been a very active life, both in the pulpit, and working hard at anything that was for the good of the grand old republican party he loved so well. He is mourned by a large circle of firends both far and near, who were proud of his friendship and of his many good qualities.

In addition to his regular ministerial duties, Dr. Dutcher was well know as a lecturer and traveled far West on his various lecturing tours. The old Market Street Church was the scene of many a stirring address in the days of 1861, and many prominent northern politicians were office bearers in the church, under Dr. Dutcher’s administration.

The funeral will take place Saturday at 1:30 p.m., and no definite arrangements will probably be made until relations arrive from New Yrok. The Silver Grays are to send some of their members to attend the funeral of their (obscured) brother. The burial will take place (obscured) Agawam, where a son of the deceased is already buried.“
