106 Village, Ganasegago was at Dansville (Morgan, p. 435). 

 Kanuskago was the door of the Six Nations (1756), whence none 

 before had come to Fort Johnson (Doc. Hist. N. Y., 7:57). Many 

 metallic relics were found there (Doty, p. 93). " Before the revolu- 

 tion, according to tradition, a battle took place on a hill a few miles 

 distant, between the Canisteo Indians and those living in this 

 vicinity, during which a chief in the latter was killed. When the 

 whites first settled here the spot where he fell was marked by a 

 large hole dug in the earth in the shape of a man with arms extended. 

 An Indian trail led by the place and the Indians on passing were 

 always accustomed to clear away the dry leaves which had blown in. 

 The chief was buried in an old Indian burying ground, which stood 

 on the site of the present Lutheran church, which was thickly cov- 

 ered with graves to the extent of 2 or 3 acres. His monument con- 

 sisted of a large pile of small stones, gathered from time to time by 

 the natives from a hill a mile distant, who, on passing, were accus- 

 tomed to take one in their hand and add to the heap. (Doty, 

 History Livingston County, p. 93.) Two rows of parallel holes, 

 poss.ibly for palisades were two miles north of Dansville (Doty, 

 p. 70).
