Anns hook, possibly Asumsowis, the modern Pells point (Map VII, B), Pelham neck, or Rodmans neck. The site of a considerable station, explored by M. R. Harrington on the northeastern side of the neck, and evidenced by large masses of shells and charcoal, and several human burials. This may have been the place in Pelham known to the natives as Asumsowis, which Tooker (Amerindian Names in Westchester County) considers to have been a personal name.

26. Shippa (Map VII, B). Now Davenports neck. A large station of the Siwanoy. Echo bay (Map VII, B). New Rochelle. At Echo bay and in Hudson Park remains indicate Indian occupancy. Shanscomacocke (Map VIII, D). A large Indian village and burying-ground on the shore of the Strome kill, Gerritsen basin, or Ryders Pond, Flatlands. Explored by D. B. Austin. Many objects plowed up in the course of cultivation in the vicinity are in possession of Mr. Ryder, resident nearby. Canarsee (Map VIII, D). The principal station of the chieftaincy known by that name. This is supposed to have been situated at or near the present locality known as Canarsie; but there being no natural water supply, it is evident that the name was that of a locality, probably including the whole neck, on which were extensive plantinggrounds.
