Description From Owner:
  • The stream flows N into Swan Creek. On an 1839 land plan it is shown as Tantywanty.
  • The name is believed to be derived from the Maliseet. There is nothing in historical records to support the popular version that the stream was named by settlers from Niagara after Tonawanda Creek.
  • With permission from 'New Brunswick Place Names' David E. Scott 2009
