Chogset. A New England name of the 

 cunner, blue perch, or Ijurgall ( (Jtenola- 

 brus cwruleui^) . Gerard (Sun, N. Y., July 

 30, 1895) says the word means 'it is 

 flabby', in Chippewa sliagosL Trumbull 

 (Natick Diet., 80, 1903) derives chogset, 

 in Pequot cachauxet, from chohcholikesH 

 in the Massaehuset dialect, signifying 

 'spotted' or 'striped,' which is a much 

 preferable etymology. (a. f. c. )

Chokuyem. The name probably applied 

 originally to a single village somewhere 

 in Petaluma valley, Sonoma co., Cal. It 

 gained a wider significance, being used by 

 Gibbs to designate all the Indians in the 

 region from San Rafael mission n. to 

 Santa Rosa and k. to Suscol, and by others 



in a still broader sense as the name of a 

 division of what they termed the 01a- 

 mentke, and comprising all the Indians 

 in Petaluma and Sonoma valleys. This 

 latter broad significance is probably due 

 to the association at Sonoma mission of 

 the original Chokuyem people with those 

 from various other villages, (s. a. b. )

 constituting a portion of the Mariposan 

 family, inhabiting San Joaquin valley, 

 Cal., and occupying a strip of territory 

 along the e. l)ank of Sau Joaquin r. in the 

 vicinity of Stockton, from the Tuolumne 

 to about Calaveras r. They were thus 

 separated by Moquelumnan tribes from 

 the main body of the family farther s. 

 Little is known about them, and they are 

 probably extinct. A Yokuts vocabulary 

 (Powers in Cont. N. A. Ethnol., iii, 571, 

 1877), from Takin or Dents Ferry on 

 Stanislaus r., at the foot of the Sierra, 

 may be from Cholovone territory. The 

 following divisions or subtribes of the 

 Cholovone are mentioned: Chupcan, Sa- 

 wani, Yachikamni, Yachimese, and 

 Yukolunini. The following are men- 

 tioned as Cholovone villages: Bantas, 

 Heluta, Hosmite, Khulpuni, Mitutra, 

 Pashashe, Takin, Tammakan, and Tawi.

 Tuohmine, which may have been Mo- 

 quelumnan.
