[FN-4] "Description of a survey of 410 acres of land, called by the Indian name Chauwangung, laid out for Thomas Lloyd." (N. Y. Land Papers, 44.) [FN-5] N. Y. Land Papers, 60. [FN-6] Ib. 169. Other early forms are Shawongunk (1685), Shawongonck (1709), Shawongunge (1712). [FN-7] From Jacobus Bruyn came the ancient hamlet still known as Bruynswick. He erected a stone mansion on the tract, in the front wall of which was cut on a marble tablet, "Jacobus Bruyn. 1724." The house was destroyed by fire in 1870 (about), and a frame dwelling erected on its old foundation. It is about half-way between Bruynswick and Tuthilltown; owned later by John V. McKinstry. The location is certain from the will of Jacobus Bruyn in 1744. [FN-8] The most worthless interpretation is that in Spofford's Gazeteer and copied by Mather in his Geological Survey: "_Shawen,_ in the Mohegan language, means 'White,' also 'Salt.' and _Gunk,_ 'A large pile of rocks,' hence 'White Rocks' or mountain." The trouble with it is that there is no such word as _Shawen,_ meaning "White" in any Algonquian dialect, and no such word as _Gunk,_ meaning "Rocks." [FN-9] The monosyllable _Shaw_ or _Schaw,_ radical _Scha,_ means "Side, edge, border, shore," etc. _Schauwunuppéque,_ "On the shore of the lake." _Enda-tacht-schawûnge,_ "At the narrows where the hill comes close to the river." (Heck.) _Schajawonge,_ "Hill-side" (Zeisb.), from which _Schawong-unk,_ "On the hill-side," or at the side of the hill, the precise bound of the name cannot be stated. [FN-10] Doc. Hist. N. Y., iv, 71, 72, _et. seq._ Col. Hist. N. Y., xiii, 272, 326. [FN-11] Authorities quoted and paper by Rev. Charles Scott, D. D., in "Proceedings Ulster Co. Hist. Soc." Memorasink, Kahogh, Gatawanuk, and Ghittatawagh, names handed down in the Indian deed to Governor Dongan in 1684, have no other record, nor were they ever specifically located. The lands conveyed to him extended from the Shawangunk range to the Hudson, bounded on the north by the line of the Paltz Patent, and south by a line drawn from about the Dans Kamer. _Ghittatawagh_ is probably from _Kitchi,_ "Great, strong," etc., and _Towatawik,_ "Wilderness"--the great wilderness, or uninhabited district. _Gatawanuk_ seems to be from _Kitchi,_ "Strong," _-awan,_ impersonal verb termination, and _-uk,_ locative, and to describe a place on a strong current or flowing stream. The same name seems to appear in Kitchawan, now Croton River. It may have located lands on the Wallkill.
