(Were) there any pirates documented at Sandy Point, Newfoundland?

As is often the case for pirates, sources are sketchy; however, early 18th century Sandy Point in St. Georges Bay, Newfoundland seems to have been a base for piracy. Particularly vicious reputations have been established for Eric Cobham and Maria Lindsey who are believed to have preyed on vessels in the Gulf of St. Lawrence from their Sandy Point hideaway.

What is the native american word for sandy point?

There is no such thing as a single "native American language", so it follows that there must be many hundreds of different ways of saying "sandy point" in many different languages.There is a place-name Hammonassett Point in Connecticut, where hammonassett means "place of sand bars" in the local Niantic or Pocumtuc Algonquian dialect , but this is not quite the same as "sandy point".The Ojibwa word for "sandy" is nagawicka, or nega-as a prefix, and a point of land is neyaashi, so it is possible to construct a place-name neganeyaashi (sandy point) - but as far as I know there is nowhere with that name.There is town in Chile with the name Punta Arenas, which means "sandy point" in Spanish, not a native American language.
