History

Local name reported in 1933 by Gerald FitzGerald, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS); "given because there was an old Russian flour mill, now in ruins, at the head of this bay." Murashev in 1839 or 1840 named it "Bukhta Popovskaya," meaning "popov's Bay." Baker (1906, p. 504) wrote, "Vasili and Ivan Popof were pioneer traders and fur hunters in Alaska in 1762-63".
