	These hills are on the neck of land between Fresh creek and the Newichawannock 
river.  Robert Huggens conveyed to James Guppy, Oct. 19, 1713, 20 acres of land, with a 
parcel of marsh and flats belonging thereto, "from the lower point, where the Indian hills 
are, to ye head of ye Fresh creek on Cochecho point."  John Meader, aged 70 years, or 
thereabouts, testified before John Woodman, Justice of the Peace, Sept. 17, 1702, that "all 
the marsh flats from the lower point where the Indian hills are, to ye head of ye crick, on 
both sides of the crick which is commonly called Fresh crick, on ye north side of 
Cochecho river, as  also a parcell of planting land on the west side of said creek" were, in 
the year of our Lord 1647 or 8, in the possession of Robert Huckins, grandfather of 
Robert Huckins, Jr., then claiming title to said marsh.
	James Guppy, Aug. 21, 1733, conveyed to Thomas Downs 35 acres of his land 
"on a certain neck commonly called by ye name of Cochecho Point, beginning at a rock on 
the south side of the way leading to Nechowannuck, near a brook yt runs out of 
Cromwel’s land into Fresh creek."  Another portion he conveyed to Joseph Ricker, Nov. 
21, 1733, beginning at the S.E. corner of Thomas Down’s land on Fresh creek.  And Aug. 
3, 1736, he conveyed 30 acres to James Philpot.  (See Guppy’s Point)
