It is not known if the township of Flushing was named after the Dutch town of Vlissengen, or if the original settlers bestowed the name (which translates into English as Flowing Water) because of the meandering, snake-like course of the Flushing River. In any event, it is certain that the colonists marveled at the natural abundance of the area.
