[A] thousand acres of land were surveyed for a man named Robert Heath in 1700, covering the site of present-day New Hope. ... Robert Heath may well have chosen the location of his land grant because it included a stream that came to be known as Ingham Creek (from the name of a prominent landowner a century later), which provided a strong enough flow to power mills. ... A local road leading to Heath’s mill is still called Sugan Road, so called for the “suggans” or saddle-bags used by farmers riding on horseback to carry their grain to the mill for grinding
