mi. 415.4 on The Alaska Rr., on right bank of Tanana River opposite mouth of Nenena River, 1 mi. NW of Nenana, Tanana Low.
HistoryIn 1903 the U.S. Army Signal Corps established the Nenana telegraph station near here borrowing the Indian name from the stream debouching on the opposite side of the Tanana. The name Nenana, however, was later used for a mission and town on the south bank of Tanana so that when a railroad station was established in this area on the north bank of the river in 1919, it was by necessity called North Nenana. The Nenana post office, established in 1908, may have originally been located here, but more likely it was located at the Nenana Indian Mission across the river.
