Additional Details:
The Name Oswegatchie is of Indian origin. It is said that when the Indians made camp in this vicinity one time, their cethered horses became frightened and broke loose. The Indians gave chase and finally cornered them at the place where the town of Oswegatchie now stands. They began yelling in broken English “Hos-We-Got-Che.”
