The son of Sir Charles Cuyler,[1] he was born in August 1867 at Almondsbury, Gloucestershire and was educated at Clifton College.[2] His father passed away during his final year at Clifton, with Cuyler succeeding him as the 4th Baronet of the Cuyler baronets in August 1885.[1] From Clifton he went up to the Royal Military College, Sandhurst where he graduated into the Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry as a second lieutenant in September 1887.[3] He was promoted to lieutenant in January 1890,[4] with promotion to captain coming in January 1895.[5]

Cuyler also played first-class cricket in 1895 for the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) at Dublin against Dublin University.[6] Batting twice in the match, he was dismissed in both MCC innings' without scoring by Ernest Ensor and Robert Gwynn respectively.[7] He became an instructor at Sandhurst in August 1897,[8] a post he held until January 1903.[9] He was seconded for service as an adjutant of volunteers in January 1904.[10] He retired from active service in September 1907, by which time he held the rank of major.[11]

Cuyler was recommissioned during the First World War, gaining the temporary rank of lieutenant colonel while commanding a depot.[12] He was made an OBE in the 1918 New Year Honours for services commanding the 43rd Regimental District Recruiting Area.[13] Cuyler died suddenly without issue at Shotover Park in Oxfordshire in October 1919.[14] He was succeeded as the 5th Baronet by his brother Sir George Cuyler.[1]
