MEMBERS OF THE ALBANY INSTITUTE 



FROM ITS 



Organization in 1824, with the Dates of their Election. 



J^~ As the Institute was formed by the federal union of the Society for the Promo- 

 tion of Useful Arts, and the Albany Lyceum of Natural History, dates prior to 1824 are 

 to be understood as referring to membership originating in one or the other of these 

 societies, and continuing under the organization of the Institute. Several of the earlier 

 members of the Institute were also original members of the Society for the Promotion of 

 Agriculture, Arts and Manufactures, incorporated in 1793, their names appearing as such 

 in the foregoing charter of that Soeiety. 



^SH The printed list of 1830 {Transactions, vol. i), and a manuscript list of 1858 (Min- 

 utes, pp. 50, 51), contain names of certain members known or presumed to have been 

 elected at an earlier date, though not so recorded. In such cases the date is that of the 

 list in which the name first appears. 



Members understood to be deceased are indicated by an asterisk (*). 



The residences given are the latest ascertained, and are to be understood as 

 within this state, unless otherwise indicated. 



Information relative to the location, decease, etc., of the non-resident members, 

 and also in regard to any errors and omissions in the list, is solicited by the Recording 

 Secretary. Corresponding and other Members may render valuable service by furnishing 

 brief notices of any of the deceased, for the use of the Institute.
