  • Its funny you want me to add my comment in English, when you pronounce Conetoe as Conita, every thing here is hyphenated Po-lice, ce-ment Con-cord, why not Cone-toe, in most parts of the country phonics is taught in grade school, obviously not here
  • Po-lice, ce-ment, and Con-cord are derived from police, cement, and Concord, respectively. Conetoe is derived from Conneghta which, of course, doesn't sound anything like Cone-toe. Conneghta and Conetoe are just two of numerous spelling variations for that place over the past 280 years. A more extensive list can be found at http://blog.ncmaps.org/index.php/conetoe/
