Flace-nomenclature. 



the land in this vicinity in 1767 it may be from his name. Or, it 

 may be derived from Francis Joseph, a Passamâquoddy chief, prom- 

 inent at the time of the Boundary discussion. Some confirmation foi 

 this is found in the fact that the point at St. Andrews nearest Navy 

 Island was named Louis point, without much doubt for Louis Nep- 

 tune, another prominent chief. (Coll. N.B. Hist. Soc, II, 1S4). 



Jolicoeur. — As Jollycocitr in the Land Memorials of 17SS, and as JoUcocur in 

 ISll. The J'ichart of Montresor is not this, but Free des Richard.s 

 (see later, under Historic Sites addenda). Jolicurc is in Fisher's 

 Sketches of 1S25, 61. Jolicoeur seems to persist as the connect, oi 

 literary, form, while the local pronunciation is " Jolicure." 



Jourimain. — A possible, though not very probable origin for this puzzling 

 name is the following. A memoir written in 1749, by Father Germain, 

 a priest in Acadia (for a copy of which I am indebted to Mr. P. P. 

 Gaudet), suggests as the proper boundary of Acadia a line extending 

 along the north shore of the Bay of Fundy, thence to Tantremar, and 

 thence to Baie Verte, or possibly Cape Tormentine. It is barely 

 possible that such a line was discussed in Acadia and known as the 

 Germain line, in which case it is conceivable that his name became 

 associated with the termination at the present Cape Jourimain, which 

 is near Cape Tormentine. The chief confirmation for such a possi- 

 bility is the fact that the name is locally pronounced Germain. But 

 I must confess to little faith in this explanation. Germain seems to 

 occur also as an Acadian name (Acadiensis, II, 103), and it may be 

 that the islands at the cape may have been so named for an early 

 resident, the present form representing a surveyor's attempt to give 

 the word a French form. It occurs first as Jcuuriman Islands in the 

 Land Memorials of 1S09. 



Kagoot Mountain. — So named, a restoration of an Indian name, in 1903, as 

 a sub.^titute for Bald, or Big Bald, Mountain, as described in Bull. 

 N. H. S., V, 215. 



Kedgwick River. — This namei appears in the documents connected with the 

 Boundary Surveys of 1818. Thus, C. Campbell in his Diary of that 

 year has invariably Madam Kiswic or Grand Fourche, which strongly 

 suggests that the name is fundamentally the same as that of the 

 Keswick (which see) ; Tiarks has Mcmkcstvcc, while the Tiarks and 

 Burnham map has Katnicamkiswy. 



The Belle Kedgwick is, no doubt, properly Bell EedgwicJc; the Final 

 Report of the Graham Commission of 1842 shows that a Captain Bell 

 surveyed the Green River in 1842, and crossed to this branch, and 

 on Graham's map of 1843 showing these surveys it is called, appar- 

 ently for the first time. Bell Kedgicick. 



Kellys Creek. — A branch is apparently called Chichauagaan (see University 

 Monthly, XIX, 4). 



Kembles Manor. — Still locally called "The Manor." Origin and history fully 

 given by Howe, in N. B. Magazine, I, 146.
