History of Kukkan Bay

Tlingit Indian name for Portlock Harbor reported by Commander H. E. Nichols, U.S. Navy (USN), in the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey (USC&GS) 1891 Coast Pilot (p. 189). At that time he thought that Kakkan Bay was identical to Portlock Harbor, but this was later discovered to be incorrect. The bay was named for a Tlingit Chief, Michael Kukkan, who in 1862 was appointed by the Russian Government to be "Chief Toyon of Koloshi" (Alaska Boundary Tribunal, v. 2, p. 316).
