Cutchogue, Plymouth Records, 1637; "_Curchaug,_ or Fort Neck;" _Corch'aki,_ deed of 1648; now Cutchogue, a village in Southold, in the vicinity of which was an Indian fort, the remains of which and of an Indian burial ground are objects of interest, is probably a corruption of _Maskutchoung,_ which see. Dr. Tooker translated from _Kehti-auke,_ "The principal place," the appositeness of which is not strikingly apparent. The clan bearing the name was party to the treaty with the Massachusetts people in 1637, and to the sale of the East Hampton lands. Their earliest sachem was Momoweta, who acknowledged the primacy of Wyandanch. Tuckahoe, a level tract of land near Southampton village, takes that name from one or the other of the larger "round" roots (Mass. _P'tuckweōō_), possibly the Golden Club, or Floating Artmi, a root described "as much of the bigness and taste of potatoes." (Trumbull.) [FN] The same name is met in Westchester County. * * * * * [FN] Dr. Brinton writes: "They also roasted and ate the acrid cormus of the Indian turnip, in Delaware _taw-ho, taw-hin_ or _tuck-ah,_ and collected the seeds of the Golden Club, common in the pools along the creeks and rivers. Its native name was _taw-kee._" ("The Lenape and their Legends.") The name of another place on Long Island, written _Hogonock,_ is probably an equivalent of Delaware _Hóbbenac_ (Zeisb.), "Potatoes," or "Ground-nuts"; _Hóbbenis,_ "Turnips." (See Passapenoc.) Sagabonock has left only the remnant of its name to Sag-pond and Sag-harbor. It is from _Sagabonak,_ "Ground nuts, or Indian potatoes." (Trumbull.) The name is of record as that of a boundmark "two miles from the east side of a Great Pond," and is described as a "pond or swamp" to which the name of the tuber was extended from its product. Ketchepunak, quoted as the name of Westhampton, describes "The greatest ground-nut place," or "The greatest ground-nuts." (See Kestaubniuk.) Wequaganuck is given as the name of that part of Sag-harbor within the town of East Hampton. It is an equivalent of _Wequai-adn-auke,_ "Place at the end of the hill," or "extending to the hill." (Trumbull.) The hill is now known as Turkey Hill, on the north side of which the settlement of Sag-harbor was commenced. Namke, from _Namaa,_ "fish," and _ke,_ "place"--fish-place--was the name of a place on the creek near Riverhead. (O'Gallaghan.) More exactly, _Nameauke,_ probably. Hoppogues, in Smithtown, Suffolk County, is pretty certainly from _Wingau-hoppague,_ meaning, literally, "Standing water of good and pleasant taste." The name was that of a spring and pond. In a deed of 1703, the explanation is, "Or ye pleasant springs." Supposed to have been the springs which make the headwaters of Nissequogue river at the locality now bearing the name of Hauppauge, a hamlet.
