The Park Service's ethnohistory of the Native peoples of central Whidbey Island. On the head of Penn Cove (pp. 84-85): "Skagit consultants also reported a village, Ʒáʒop, meaning literally 'head of a bay' in Skagit, at the present location of the town of San de Fuca," and Snyder's consultants said that "at San de Fuca was a permanent village that was used by others on the island in the summer for getting mussels. And from this village there led a trail straight over to Ocean Beach on the extreme west coast of Whidbey to a look-out for the enemy." Nearby Xwelxwa'lo, a camp or small village, was said to have been at one time the home of Chief Goliah. Read 13 Oct 2026.
