Name New Stockbridge
Notes "The town of New Stockbridge, originally called "Tuscarora" or "Old Oneida" by whites and "Ah-gote-sa-ga-nage" by the Oneidas (meaning unknown), is situated in present-day Madison County on what was once part of the extensive Oneida reservation. By 1785 the majority of the Stockbridge tribe, numbering about 280, had made the move and settled in the northeastern part of the town near Vernon, New York." (http://www.mohican.com/historypart1/)
