Historical information about the Pocomoke Indian Nation
Identified in early colonial records as Quandanquan, Morumsco, Manoakin, Nuswattax, Acquintica, and Annemessex. Historically, the Pocomoke Indian Nation’s territory likely extended into Accomac County, Virginia. A palisaded town of the Pocomoke People appears on John Smith’s map on land that is now present-day Accomac County.
