Perth Amboy, New Jersey/USA Amboy Founded in the late 17th century as Amboy, from an earlier Native American name Ompage which may have meant ‘level ground’. ‘Perth’ was added later in tribute to an early owner, James Drummond (1648–1716), 4th Earl, and 1st Duke, of Perth who was instrumental in attracting impoverished Scots to the area.
