A village in Craven County
… a Tuscarora Indian village appearing on the Lawson map, 1709, and the Moll map, 1729, between the Neuse and Trent Rivers, central Craven County. The name meant "where the fish are taken out." When the Tuscarora Indians moved to New York, they took the name with them and it has survived as Chautauqua.
