[Frederic Shonnard & W.W. Spooner (1900)] There was apparently a division of chieftaincies at one time, Kitchawong figuring as sachem of the village and castle on the Croton and Sachus of the village of Sackhoes or Peekskill. The lands of the chief-taincv were principally included in the Manor of Cortlandt, and from them the towns of Cortlandt, Yorktown, Somers, North Salem, and Lewisboro have been erected. 5. The Tankitekes. They occupied the country now comprising the towns of Poundridge, Bedford, and New Castle, in Westchester County, and those of Darien, Stamford, and New Canaan in Connecticut, all purchased by Na-thaniel Turner in 1640 on behalf of the people of New Haven, and de-scribed in the deeds as tracts called Toquams and Shipham. Ponus was sachem of the form-er and Wasenssne of the latter. Ponus reserved portions of Toquams for the use of himself and his associates, but with this exception the entire possessions of the Tan-kitekes appear to have passed under a deed to the whites without metes or bounds. The chief-taincy occupies a prom-inent place in Dutch his-tory through the action of Pacham, " a crafty man," who not only per-Eormed discreditable services for Director Kieft, but also was very lavgely instrumental in bringing on the war of 1045. O'Callaghan locates the Tankitekes on the eastern side of Tappan Bav, and Bolton in the eastern portion of Westchester County, from deeds to then-lands.
