Long Beach Little Cape Hedge Rockport MA

Historic maps and books from the 1800s label the landform between Cape Hedge Beach and Long Beach “Little Cape Hedge” or “Cape Hedge”, and the creek “Saratoga River”. I’ve heard the former (also “Eagle Rock”),  but not the latter. So many generations of families return to Long Beach cottages. Do you remember family names for these coastal landmarks?
