[30] St. Yotoc was probably a corruption of Scioto. Father Bonnecamps calls it Sinhioto. It was near the present site of Alexandria, Ohio, at the mouth of the Scioto River.

[31] Riviere Blanche was a name given by the French to several streams which contained unusually clear waters. From distances mentioned this was probably the Little Miami. Dunn (_History of Indiana_, p. 65, note 1) thinks it was the present White Oak Creek.

[32] Riviere a la Roche (Rocky River) was the present Great Miami. It was called the "Rocky River" because of its numerous rapids.
