Theodore Ledyard Cuyler (January 10, 1822-February 26, 1909) graduated from The College of New Jersey (later known as Princeton University) in 1841, and was ordained as a minister in 1848.

He was Brooklyn's leading proponent of the YMCA after he moved to Brooklyn, circa 1859.

In 1885, Culyer started the Sunday Mission School on lower Atlantic Avenue in order to bring the Christian religious faith to the poor. The Sunday Mission School was soon known as Cuyler Presbyterian Church, located at 360 Pacific Street. In 1902, he published Recollections of a Long Life . Cuyler resided at 176 South Oxford Street.
