There are problems with the "succotash" entry as well. Etymonline has this to say
1751, from a word in a Southern New England Algonquian language, such as Narragansett misckquatash "boiled whole kernels of corn." Used by 1793 in New England in reference to a dish of boiled corn and green beans (especially lima beans).
(No beans initially). I was suspicious because I thought lima beans were domesticated in South America (Peru). That turned out to be inaccurate. There are two species of lima beans, one domesticated some 4000 years ago in the Andes and another species domesticated about 1200 years ago in Mesoamerica (southern Mexico, Guatemala, etc.), a long way from New England. It appears the beans were added to succotash in colonial New England.
