Jegou's Island : ウィキペディア英語版 | Jegou's Island Jegou's Island or Chygoe's Island is a former island located at the junction of Assiscunk Creek and the Delaware River, on which the central portion of the city of Burlington, in Burlington County, New Jersey, is located. The Moat, a now partially filled distributary of Assiscunk Creek, formerly separated the island from the mainland.〔''A plan of the island of Burlington : and a view of the city from the River Delaware'', William Russell Birch, Philadelphia, 1797〕 ==Toponymy== This island was named for Peter Jegou, an early settler thereof. It has been corrupted at times to Chygoe's Island, and erroneously attributed to the name of a Lenape sachem.
