History of Delarof Harbor

Named by Captain Tebenkov (1852, map 24), Imperial Russian Navy (IRN), as "g/avan/ Delarova," probably for the Greek=born Eustrate Ivanovich Delarov, director of the Russian American Company about 1784-91; shown as Delarof Harbor on U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey (USC&GS) Chart 8881 (1891).
