Untitled[edit]

The Griffin family from Family Guy lives in the fictional town of Quahog, Rhode Island. They do not live in Quonochontaug, RI. That statement should be removed from this article. 74.10.165.115 (talk) 15:24, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Etymology[edit]

I would like to see a description of the etymology of the name. In general, I do find that descendants of North American colonists (such as myself) are often willfully blind to the deep Native American heritage of their own local area, simply because the people our ancestors displaced are not "our people".

So for starters, what does Quonochontaug actually translate into English as? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Exceat (talk • contribs) 16:48, 14 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
