Suckiaug
Suckiaug, meaning "Black Fertile River-Enhanced Earth, good for planting", is the name of the land lining the river valley of what is currently Hartford, Windsor, Wethersfield, South Windsor, East Hartford, Glastonbury and Rocky Hill in Connecticut in the United States.
In 1623, the Dutch settled this land, calling it Fort Huys de Goede Hoop or the Fort House of Good Hope. The English came with Thomas Hooker leading a flock of 100 from Newetowne (now Cambridge in 1636, 16 years after the Plymouth Colony was settled and six years after the Massachusetts Bay Colony. In 1639 the Fundamental Orders were established as an agreement between the residents of Hartford, Windsor, and Wethersfield for a conglomeration governing body to form the Colony of the "Plantacons of the Connecticott River", now called the State of Connecticut.
