Identifier kcc_88-112a Title The Purchase of Meadow & Upland [The Deed to Coney Island] Description In 1645, the Dutch West India Company allowed a group of English settlers to settle on "Coyne Island." Although the history of the name is a subject for debate, "Coney" is an Anglicized version of the Dutch word for rabbits, konijn; along with other barrier islands along Long Island's South shore, Coney Island had a large rabbit population. The Native-American Lenape tribe called the island "Narrioch." On May 7, 1654 Guttaquoh made his mark on the bottom of this deed conveying the Island to the forty Gravesend settlers (note symbols used by the Native-Americans in place of signatures).

Bliss Description Henry Hale Bliss (June 13, 1830  September 14, 1899) had the unlucky honor of being the first person killed by a motor vehicle in the United States. On September 13, 1899 as he disembarked from a streetcar at West 74th Street and Central Park West, an electric-powered taxicab struck him and crushed his head and chest. He died the following morning and the coroner noted for the first time this curious modern phrase: "overrun by an automobile." The driver, Arthur Smith, was arrested and charged with manslaughter but was later acquitted on the grounds that it was unintentional. Date September 14, 1899 m_m_1905_6145 Certificate and Record ...
