What awaits
Former Tlingit Indian village or camp name published in 1895 by U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey (USC&GS). According to Hodge (1910, p. 648), the name “Sukkwan” was said (by R. S. Swanton, Bureau of American Ethnology (BAE) to be from Haidatown of the Koetas family, formerly on Cordova Bay, in the Kaigani country, Alaska. In 1836-41 John Work stated, “the number of houses here was 14 and the number of people 229.” The population was absorbed by the village of Kaigani, which, in turn, was abandoned in 1911, when the village of Hydaburg was established, in order to centralize the school system. See Kaigani.
