History

The name Sherruck Brook was published as early as 1890 in "Summer Homes Among the Mountains on the New York Ontario & Western Railway". Presumably named in reference to an unincorporated community, destroyed by the construction of Cannonsville Reservoir, that once existed at the confluence of Sherruck Brook and Trout Creek. Late 19th century atlases named the community Shurruck or Shurruck Creek.
