Musical: Hamilton
Peggy became ill in 1799. Her condition worsened during the winter of 1800–01, and she died on March 14, 1801. According to Ron Chernow, Alexander Hamilton was in Albany for legal business when her health declined.
"Hamilton visited her bedside often and kept Eliza posted on developments. When Hamilton finished his court work, Peggy asked him to stay for a few days, and he complied with her wishes.
In mid-March, Hamilton had to send Eliza a somber note: "On Saturday, my dear Eliza, your sister took leave of her sufferings and friends, I trust, to find repose and happiness in a better country".
"She was originally buried in the family plot at the Van Rensselaer estate, and later reinterred at Albany Rural Cemetery.
Alexander is the last person that Peggy bonded with before she died :(
