Description From Owner:

Lake Errock - Originally Squakum Lake, but this inelegant name, for a kind of spring salmon, was changed to Loch Erroch for the post office maintained here from 1892 to 1896.
(The name was apparently borrowed by A. W. Ross, local rancher and MP, from Loch Ericht in Inverness-shire, Scotland.)
When the post office was reestablished in 1940, it was as Lake Errock, but Victoria insisted upon calling the lake Squakum Lake for about thirty more years.
