ABORIGINAL OCCUPATION OF NEW YORK 99 
of the last and a few rods from the river. These three are north 
of Honeoye creek, and were reported by Mr Clapp. An early 
cemetery was at the mouth of Honeoye creek. Early relics are 
scattered along the river thence to Avon and probably farther. 
30 The age of this site is somewhat confused. G. S. Conover 
thought it the early Keinthe, and placed it a mile southwest of 
Honeoye Falls. Gen. J. S. Clark gives it nearly the same location, 
but more to the north, and calls it the Totiacton of 1687. He identi- 
fies Sonnontouan and Totiacton, of missionary days, with a site in 
Mendon, one and one half miles north northwest of Honeoye Falls. 
He adds, “A second location, and probably the one occupied in 
1687 when destroyed by fire, was on the Ball farm, a mile west 
of Honeoye Falls village. Here, on a space of about 20 acres, 
a great abundance of relics have been found, of copper, glass and 
iron, brass crosses, medals and rings, and hundreds of iron axes 
bearing evidence of having passed through the fire.’ Raymond 
Dann, on whose father’s farm the site is, says it is on a little 
stream flowing into the Honeoye creek near Sibleyville. The site 
is of about 20 acres, and he had explored about four acres of the 
cemetery. A local story was that this was a Totiacton built after 
1687. The writer has carefully examined Mr Dann’s very fine col- 
lection of relics and feels certain the village could not have been 
built after De Nonville’s invasion. This is the view of both 
Conover and Clark, though they differ in identifying the village. 
Many of the articles found passed out of use among the Mohawks 
and Onondagas before 1650, but others are of a later type. On 
the whole it seems reasonable to suppose it one of the villages 
destroyed by the French. A later examination by the writer showed 
two cemeteries and also some neighboring early camps. 
31 A cemetery about seven miles southeast of Bergen has some 
early relics. 
32 A cemetery in Churchville is by the West Shore railroad, and 
there are arrowheads toward the creek. 
33 All of the following were reported by E. P. Clapp. A camp 
west of the river, and 200 yards south of the-bridge between Scotts- 
ville and Rush: Many flint implements. Many fine arrowheads
