Our Beloved Kin: Remapping A New History of King Philip's War

Remove 7: Squakeag/Northfield

Sokwakik as region and name used for this southernmost town.
(At the beginning of the war, site of an ambush of colonial troops [with link]?)
It would be good to talk about the deeds here, all the names that are on them. Similar to Nashaway -- a reclamation of Sokwakik
How recently colonized, vs. longstanding habitation here.

Before this, talk about the path they followed, now a road, alongside a brook...


Then to the region and town [include picture of bank of river at Northfield launch]. Should mention how people ate here, during MWR's visit. Then move to canoe launch? [image of river at launch]
