The Okehocking (also erroneously attested as the Ockanickon or Crum Creek Indians) were a small band of Unami-speaking Lenape who originally inhabited an area along the Ridley and Crum Creeks in Delaware County, Pennsylvania. First attested in 1700, the band's name may have derived from the bends in Crum and Ridley Creeks.
