I am looking for ancestral information on Cornelius Nagle/Nagel, born in Westchester in 1797; he married Catherine Ann Gansvoorst Leggett in 1844; he was a lawyer in NYC, and died in Brooklyn in 1870. He mostly spelled his name Nagle, although I think he is Dutch. Two families- the Dykmans and the Nagles were the original settlers and land holders in NYC in the Westchester area, and there was a house of the Nagle's called The Century House, near the Robert Morris house in earlier years; it was near Kingsbridge. He might be related to my gg grandmother Catherine Nagle from Ireland; it is possible that she met her husban, Shubael Edgar Swain, a lawyer like Cornelius, through Cornelius; the two men had law offices next to each other. Both families are also tied up with the Leggetts. It is a real puzzle, but situationally looks like a big clue. I can't find info about his ancestors.
