Che-pach-et, an applied name, is said to mean where they separate. 



Ci-o-ha-na, large creek, is East Canada creek on Sauthier's map. 

 As another name on this map for this is Gayohara, this name might 

 be thought a natural but erroneous rendering of Giohara. Cai-o- 

 ha-hon Te-ga-hi-ha-ha-ough-we, however, appears on an indenture 

 of 1763, and as the latter name stands for East Canada creek, the 

 former may be a place on it, corresponding to Ciohana, Tegahi- 

 haroughwe is on George Klock's patent of 1754. French gives 

 both Ci-o-ha-na and Sag-o-ha-ra. 



Da-ya'-hoo-wa'-quat, carrying place, is Morgan's name for the 

 Mohawk above Little Falls. A. Cusick interpreted this as lifting 

 the boat, but added another definition, in the valley. The former is 

 to be preferred. 



De-ka'-yo-ha-ron'-we, a creek flowing into the Mohawk about 200 

 yards below Fort Hendrick, at Canajoharie Castle. In 1761 John- 

 son and others wished to buy a tract beginning on the north bank 

 of this creek, 13 miles from the Mohawk. This was East Canada 

 creek, and variants of the name are given. The Indian village of 

 Canajoharie was then a little farther west and on the south side of 

 the Mohawk, the country adjoining being called Canajoharrees. 



D'e-yosh-to-ra-ron. In this petition it was asked that the line 

 might run west to a creek called Deyoshtoraron, or West Canada 

 creek to Burnetsfield. 



Morgan said that Ga-ne'-ga-ha'-ga was the upper Mohawk castle, 

 in the town of Danube and nearly opposite East Canada creek, de- 

 fining this as possessor of the Hint, which is the national name of 

 the Mohawks. This village was really the Indian Canajoharie of 

 1750, the name being retained as the Mohawks moved up the river. 

 At that time they had but two castles, while in 1634 they had four 

 east of the present Canajoharie. 



Ga-ron'-da-ga-ra'-on, hig tree, was the western limit of the Bur- 

 netsfield patent of 1725. The latter part of the name is incorrectly 

 written. 



Ga-yo-ha'-ra or Sa-go-ha'-ra, where I washed, was one name of 

 East Canada creek, having the former form on Sauthier's map. It 

 has also been written Kuyahoora. 



Hon-ne-da'-ga, ^1^7/3; place, is a name recently applied to Jock's 

 lake.
