The term "fishkill" originates from the Dutch word "viskill," which means "fish creek." It was used by early Dutch settlers in the 17th century to describe areas along the Hudson River in present-day New York where fish were abundant. Over time, "Fishkill" became the name of a town and a creek in that region. The name reflects the area's historical significance in fishing and its Natural Resources.
