Question d'origine :
Bonjour,
Je souhaiterais savoir d'où l'ïle Hatteras, située au large de la Caroline du Nord, tire son nom. Est-ce qu'un certain Hatteras l'aurait découverte ?
Je vous remercie.
Bien à vous.

The name Hatteras was apparently derived from an area further north along the Outer Banks which was called Hatorask by the early settlers. (cf. outerbankschamber.com)
Il semble que ce soit le nom d'un tribu indienne :
White knew Croatan was an island southward from Roanoke because he said Manteo and the friendly savages of Roanoke Island were born there. When John Lawson the first real historian of North Carolina, visited this section in 1708 he said the Hatteras Indians who lived at Roanoke Island or much frequented it told him several of their ancestors were white people and “could talk in a book” as Lawson did; that he saw frequently grey eyes among those Indians and among no other tribes, and that they valued themselves extremely for their kinship to the English and showed readiness to do the most friendly offices for them. So then the Croatans werethe Hatorask or Hatteras Indians . (cf. archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com)
