Another brother of Governor de Lancey, Oliver, was a conspicuous figure in public life until the end of the colonial regime, although never connected with Westchester County. In the Revolution he was the British commander of the Department of Long Island, and raised three regiments, known as " De Laneey's Battalion;' of which he was brigadier-general. His descendants contracted brilliant marriages with English families. Governor de Lancey had two sisters-- Susan, who married Admiral Sir Peter Warren, and Anne, who became the wife of John Watts, Sr., whose son became county judge of Westchester County.
