Point Incarnation in Detail.

About

N tip of an island, at the mouth of Steamboat Bay, NE coast of Noyes Island; Alexandria Archipeligo.

History

The Spanich name "Punta de Jesus Maria" was given to this feature in 1775 by Don Juan de la Bodega y Quadra and Francisco Antonio Maurelle; changed to "Incarnation Point" in June 1922 by U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey (USC&GS), to avoid names implying irreverence. Wagner (1937, p464) applies the Spanish name to Cape Ulitka, on the NW coast of Noyes Island.
