Sauquoit Creek : ウィキペディア英語版 | Sauquoit Creek Sauquoit Creek is a 〔U.S. Geological Survey. National Hydrography Dataset high-resolution flowline data. (The National Map ), accessed August 31, 2015〕 river in New York, USA. It lies within the southern part of Oneida County. The creek flows eastward, then turns sharply and flows generally northward through the Sauquoit Valley to the Mohawk River, entering the river on the east side of Whitesboro. It is therefore part of the Hudson River watershed. == History == According to author Fred Willman, the word Sequoit is a form of spelling of the Iroquois Indian word Sa-da-quoit, which was the Iroquois Indian name for the stream. In the Iroquois language, Sa-da-quoit literally means "smooth pebbles in the bed of a stream." When settlers moved into the area, they modified the spelling and pronunciation of the stream to Sauquoit Creek."〔http://cnysnakepitlives.blogspot.com/2008/05/long-reach-of-sauquoit-creek.html〕 The first cotton mills in the area were located on the Sauquoit at New York Mills in 1804. 〔http://fulton.nygenweb.net/Turnpike/Summary3.html〕
