Plantation?[edit]

"if his holdings were in the South they would have been called a plantation"...that word, plantation, evokes a memory of slavery and Schuyler never had slaves as far as I know, it gives the wrong impression. If no one objects I'd like to remove the sentence, I think from the description of his holdings people can make their own comparision to a plantation or not. — Preceding unsigned comment added by VanishedUser 23asdsalkaka (talk • contribs) 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Editing help, please[edit]

This is under Early Life:

"Fluent in both Dutch and English from childhood,[6] and later a general in the New Jersey militia who also commanded the Jersey Blues (William and Hester were the grandparents of Vice President and Speaker of As depar Schuyler and Arthur St. Clair were court-martialed for the loss of Ticonderoga, but were both acquitted."

I'm having trouble figuring out what this is supposed to say. Obviously the closed parenthesis is missing; I think the closed parens belongs right before "Schuyler and Arthur..." But the text before this seems incomplete as well. Can anyone figure out how to correct this or what the sentence was originally meant to be? Cheers.

@History Lunatic: I believe I restored all the content that had been removed without explanation. I went back through previous versions of the article from June to March, pulled the missing content, then added it back to the article.

If you see anything wrong or missing, please let me know.
