Like someone said names change with time and so do places. Old timers used to talk about fishing point to point at Popponesset, which was all the way over to Waquoit jetties. In 1831 maps were just the best guess. Poket point is a bigger mystery than Sampson's narrows. Yes there still are salters on the Cape.

I think I have a pretty good idea where Poket point is, as more was described and written about that location. Its all private property now, but you could access it by boat or kayak. Salters went the way of the buffalo especially since they were catching them by the bushel basket in the 1800's didn't help. But just like the buffalo they are making headway and coming back slowly.
