[Edward Manning Ruttenber (1906)] Appamaghpogh, now _Amawalk,_ seems to have been extended to a tract of land without specific location. It is presumed to have been the name of a fishing place on what is now known as Mohegan Lake _Appéh-ama-paug,_ "Trap fishing place," or pond. _Amawalk,_ is from _Nam'e-auke,_ "Fishing-place," (Trumbull.) In the Massachusetts dialect _-pogh_ stands for "pond," or water-place. Keskistkonck, Pasquasheck, and Nochpeem are noted on Van der Donck's map in the Highlands. In Colonial History is the entry (1644), "Mongochkonnome and Papenaharrow, chiefs of Wiquseskkack and Nochpeems." On the east side of the river, apparently about opposite the Donderberg, is located, on early maps, the _Pachimi,_ who, in turn, are associated in records with the _Tankitekes._ Pacham is given as the name of a noted chief of the early period. His clan was probably the Pachimi. Keskistkonck was a living name as late as 1663, but disappears after that date. "The Kiskightkoncks, who have no chief now, but are counted among the foregoing savages." (Col. Hist. N. Y., xiii, 303.) Sachus, Sachoes and Sackoack are quoted as names of Peekskill, and _Magrigaries_ as the name of the stream. The latter is an orthography of _MacGregorie's,_ from Hugh MacGregorie, an owner of lands on the stream. [FN-1] Though quoted as the name of Peak's Kill, it was the name given to a small creek south of that stream, as per map of 1776.
