To the Senate and House of Representatives:
My attention having been called to the necessity of bringing about
a uniform usage and spelling of geographic names in the publications
of the Government, the following executive order was issued on the
4th day of September, 1890 :
As it is desirable that uniform usage in regard to geographic nomenclature and
orthography obtain throughout the Executive Departments of the Government,
and particularly upon the maps' and charts issued by the various Departments and
Bureaus, I hereby constitute a Board on Geographic Names, and designate the fol-
lowing persons, who have heretofore cooperated for a similar purpose under the
authority of the several Departments, bureaus, and institutions with which they are
connected, as members of said Board:
Prof. Thomas C. Mendenhall, U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey, chairman,
Andrew H. Allen, Department of State.
Capt. Henry L. Howison, Light-House Board, Treasury Department.
Capt. Thomas Turtle, Engineer Corps, War Department.
Lieut. Richardson Clover, Hydrographic Office, Navy Department.
Pierson H. Bristow, Post-Office Department.
Otis T. Mason, Smithsonian Institution.
Herbert G. Ogden, U. S. Coast and Geodetic; Survey.
Henry Gannett, U. S. Geological Survey.
Marcus Baker, U. S. Geological Survey.
To this Board shall be referred all unsettled questions concerning geographic
names which arise in the Departments, and the decisions of the Board are to be ac-
cepted by these Dejjartments as the standard authority in such matters.
Department officers are instructed to atford such assistance as may be proper to
carry on the work of this Board.
The members of this Board shall serve without additional compensation, and its
organization shall entail no expense on the Government.
The report of the Board thus constituted has been submitted to me
and is herewith transmitted for the information of Congress and with a
view to its publication in suitable form, if such action is deemed by
Congress to be desirable.

2 UNITED STATES BOARD ON GEOGRAPHIC NAMES.
The President of the United States :
Sir : The United States Board on Geographic Names, constituted
under the executive order of September 4, 1890, has the honor to sub-
mit to you herewith its first report :
ORIGIN AND HISTORY.
The necessity for a Board for inducing uniform usage and spelling of
geographic names in the publications of the Government has long been
apparent.
There are several bureaus and departments engaged in the construc-
tion of maps and charts, and the publication and dissemination of
geographic information. Prominent among them are the Coast and
Geodetic Survey, which is making charts of the coasts of the United
States, the Hydrographic Office of the Navy Department, from which
emanate charts of foreign coasts, the Geological Survey, which is mak-
ing a mother map of the United States, the General Land Office, which
compiles from its plats maps of most of the States and Territories, the
Post-Office Department, which decides the names of all post-offices,
etc. Besides these there is scarcely a bureau of the General Govern-
ment which does not have occasion in its reports and other papers to
use geographic names, to a greater or less extent.
It is well known that there have existed among these bureaus differ-
ences of usage concerning geographic names. Indeed, even among
different publications of the same bureau, usage has not been uniform.
It has frequently occurred that the same bureau has used different
forms at different times and in different publications. In the winter of
1889 and 1890 this matter became a subject of conference among a few
of those most deeply interested, and it was decided to attempt the
removal of a serious and growing evil in the publications of the Gov-
ernment. With this purpose in view, a voluntary association of repre-
sentatives of some of the bureaus interested was formed early in the
spring for the purpose of considering and deciding upon the proper
names or the spelling to be adopted in such cases as should be brought
before it, and thus gradually to bring about uniformity in the publica-
tions of the bureaus represented in respect to geographic names.
There were represented in this association the Coast and Geodetic
Survey, the Hydrographic Office, the Geological Survey, the laght-
House Board, the Smithsonian Institution, the Departments of State
and War, and the Post-Office Department.
After several meetings, in which much was done in the way of de-
termining methods of procedure and adopting general principles for
guidance, as well as the consideration and decision of more than a hun-
dred cases, it was recognized that the importance of the work of the
association and the difficulties of an administrative character which
might be anticipated, required that its organization should be strength-
ened. Under these circumstances executive authority coidd alone se-
cure adoption in all Government publications of the decisions of the
association. The matter was therefore brought to your attention and
the association was clothed with the necessary authority by the following
EXECUTIVE ORDER.
As it; is desirable that uniform usage in regard to geographic nomenclature and
orthography obtain throughout the Executive Departments of the Government, and
particularly upon the maps and charts issued by the various Departments and bu-
reaus, I hereby constitute a Board ou Geographic Names, and designate the following
UNITED STATES BOARD ON GEOGRAPHIC NAMES. 6
persons, who have heretofore cooperated for a similar purpose under the authority
of the several Departments, bureaus, and institutions with which they are connected,
as members of said Board :
Prof. Thomas C. Mendenhall, U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey, chairman.
Andrew H. Allen, Department of State.
Capt. Henry L. Howison, Light-House Board, Treasury Department.
Capt. Thomas Turtle, Engineer Corps, War Department.
Lieut. Richardson Clover, Hydrographic Office, Navy Department.
Pierson H. Bristow, Post-Office Department.
Otis T. Mason, Smithsonian Institution.
Herbert G. Ogden, U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey.
Henry Gannett, U. S. Geological Survey.
Marcus Baker, U. S. Geological Survey.
To this Board shall be referred all unsettled questions concerning geographic; names
which arise in the Departments, and the decisions of the Board are to be accepted by
these Departments as the standard authority in such matters.
Department officers are instructed to afford such assistance as may be proper to
carry on the work of this Board.
The members of this Board shall serve without additional compensation, and its
organization shall entail no expense on the Government.
Benjamin Harrison.
Executive Mansion, September 4, 1890.
Under this authority the Board has held seventeen meetings. It has
adopted a code of by-laws for regulating the transaction of business,
has agreed upon certain general principles for guiding its decisions,
and has decided about 2,000 cases.
The by-laws under which its proceedings have been carried on are as
follows :
BY-LAWS.
I. — Name.
This organization shall be called "The United States Board on Geographic Names."
II. — Officers of the Board.
The officers shall consist of a chairman, a secretary (who snail be elected by ballot),
and an executive committee of three to be appointed by the chair with the concur-
rence of the Board, all of whom shall serve for one year or until their successors shall
be chosen.
III. — Duties of officers.
(a) The chairman shall preside at the meetings and shall certify to the decisions
of the Board. He shall appoint all committees not specially named by the Board.
He shall have power to designate a member of the Board to act for him during his
temporary absence.
(b) The secretary shall record the proceedings of the Board and shall keep a record
that will show the decisions rendered, or other action of the Board upon cases sub-
mitted to it, with reference to the papers filed in each case. He shall maintain files
of the original papers, or copies of them, that may be presented in each case, con-
veniently arranged for reference. He shall conduct the general correspondence and
shall receive communications presented for the consideration of the Board, trans-
mitting them to the executive committee as their character may require or as may
be hereafter provided.
(c) The executive committee shall receive through the Secretary all communica-
tions requiring decision by the Board, shall investigate the questions presented, se-
curing information from all available sources, andshall report upon them to the Board,
submitting recommendations regarding them.
IV. — Meetings.
The Board shall hold regular meetings on the first Tuesday in each month, except-
ing the months of July, August, and September. Special meetings may be called by
the chairman or by the executive committee. A majority of the Board shall consti-
tute a quorum. The affirmative vote of a majority of all the members of the Board
shall be required in the final decision in any case. All motions presented for the
consideration of the Board shall be submitted in writing.
4 UNITED STATES BOARD ON GEOGRAPHIC NAMES.
V. — Amendments.
These by-laws may be amended at any regular or special meeting, by a majority
vote of all the members of the Board, provided that the proposed amendment has been
presented at least four weeks previous to the time the vote. is taken.
Washington, D. C, adopted November 4, 1890.
Under these by-laws the Board was organized with Prof. T. G. Men-
denhall as chairman, as provided for in the Executive order, the elec-
tion of Lieut. Commander Richardson Clover as secretary, and the ap-
pointment of Messrs. Henry Gannett, Richardson Clover, and H. G.
Ogden as executive committee.
WORK DONE.
The necessity of this Board has already been amply demonstrated.
During this, its first year, there have been submitted to it more than
2,000 questions and decisions have been rendered in nearly all of these
cases. Shortly after it was organized it was called upon to render de-
cisions concerning several hundred names in Alaska, where the utmost
confusion exists regarding geographic names. In this region the diffi-
culties of transliteration of Russian and Indian names into English
characters are complicated by the fact that expedition after expedition
visiting this region has assigned different sets of names to its geo-
graphic features. The difficulties encountered in settling the questions
submitted relative to Alaskan names made it apparent that nothing
short of a complete revision of the geographic nomenclature of Alaska
would be satisfactory. Accordingly the Board, having decided the
cases submitted to it, is now engaged in making such a revision, the
result of which will be to furnish a geographic dictionary of the Ter-
ritory.
The Lighthouse Board and the Coast and Geodetic Survey have sub-
mitted to this Hoard all cases occurring in the light lists concerning
which there is a difference in usage or opportunity for improvement.
These questions have been discussed ami decided, and the decisions go
far toward settling the nomenclature of the coast and lake shores.
The Census Office has submitted to tin- Board all cases of difference
of usage in county and township names, and the names of corporate
towns, cities, etc., and all these questions, numbering fully 1. 000, have
been decided after suitable investigation. In connection with this
work the Board has made certain minor, but widespread changes in
nomenclature, which are expressed in principles 5 to 10, inclusive. (See
page 8.) As a part of this work the Board has, after examination and
the decision of all disputed cases, approved a certain form of spelling
of the names of the counties of the United States.
ORIGIN OF AND CHANGES IN NAMES.
With the exception of the names of political subdivisions, geographic
names in this country have not, as a rule, been bestowed by any formal
authority. The names of natural features, rivers, lakes, mountains.
capes, etc., and of unchartered bodies of population, have received their
names originally from explorers, surveyors, and early settlers, and these
names have been perpetuated by common consent. Tin1 mimes of states,
counties, and municipalities of all classes, on the other hand, have been
applied either by legislative enactment or charter, and therefore possess
some degree of formal authority.
tWITED STATES BOARD ON GEOGRAPHIC NAMES. 5
Differences of usage exist to a large extent, not only in the names of
natural features and unincorporated places, but even in those of organ-
ized bodies of population whose names have been bestowed by formal
authority. These differences have originated in numerous ways.
In the unsettled parts of the country, different exploring expeditions,
ignoring the work of their predecessors, have given new names to fea-
tures already named. As elsewhere noted, this difficulty has often oc-
curred in Alaska, which has been visited in recent years by numerous
expeditions.
The transliteration of Indian names has everywhere been a fruitful
source of differences in spelling, inasmuch as no two persons understand
alike or render into the same English characters the obscure sounds of
Indian names.
It often happens in the case of the larger geographic features', such
as extended mountain ranges, rivers, etc., that different names have
been applied locally in different parts, and these different names have
become well settled in usage.
It frequently happens that railroads adopt names for their stations
different from those of the towns or villages in which they are situated,
and thus divide the usage. To a much greater extent, however, than
the railroads has the Post-Office Department confused the nomenclature
of the smaller towns and villages by attaching names to the post-offices
not in accordance with those in local usage. Indeed, a list shows that
there are in this country thousands of cases where the name of the
post-office does not conform to the local name of the place in which it
is situated. These differences are very confusing to those using the
postal service, and it seems desirable to reduce their number as far as
practicable, at the same time recognizing the importance of having but
one post-office of the same name in each state.
By far the greater number of differences in usage, however, have
their origin in carelessness or ignorance on the part of those making
use of the names. Such errors appearing in print are frequently per-
petuated, especially in popular works, and often supplant the original
name in usage.
Originating in these divergencies of spelling, there is distinctly
traceable a development of geographic nomenclature, which is on the
whole proceeding in a beneficial direction. Its tendency is towards
the discarding of objectionable names and the adoption of pleasing
ones, and towards the simplification and abbreviation of names, par-
ticularly as shown in the dropping of silent letters. The Board, recog-
nizing this course of development, deems it to be within its power to
guide it, and even to forestall it, as far as its future course may be
foreseen.
The extent to which geographic names have been modified without
being radically changed is scarcely appreciated. A large proportion,
probably a majority of the names of natural features have undergone
changes in spelling to a greater or less extent since they were first ap-
plied, while of the names of political divisions, although established by
formal act, a considerable proportion have also changed, and such
changes have, in thousands of cases, become firmly established. There-
fore the position assumed by some persons, that we should revert to the
original forms of names, would, if carried out, result in changing the
names of a large proportion of our natural and artificial features.
6 UNITED STATES BOARD ON GEOGRAPHIC NAMES,-
POLICY OF THE BOARD.
The Board is agreed that in general the name which is in common
local use at present should be adopted. This is a broad general prin-
ciple, and summarizes the policy of the Board, with the exception of
certain classes of cases mentioned below. It covers cases of changes or
corruptions of names, except where such changes or corruptions are
considered to be unworthy of perpetuation.
The difficulties encountered in carrying out this principle are found
mainly in determining what is local usage, or the prevailing local usage
where it is divided between different forms. Where the local usage is
so divided, opportunity is afforded for the selection of the more appro-
priate and euphonious of the names in use.
The Board considers it desirable to depart from local usage in certain
cases in order to effect reforms in nomenclature. Among these de-
partures approved by the Board are the following:
(a) The avoidance, so far as seems practicable, of the possessive form
of names.
(b) The dropping of the final "h" in the termination " burgh."
(c) The abbreviation of "borough" to "boro."
(d) The spelling of the word "center" as here given.
(e) The discontinuance of the use of hyphens in connecting parts of
names.
(/) The omission wherever practicable of the letters "C. H." (Court
House) after the names of county seats.
(g) The simplification of names consisting of more than one word by
their combination into one word.
(h) The avoidance of the use of diacritic characters.
(i) The dropping of the words "city" and "town" as parts of names.
All of these changes are warranted by the direction of development!
The possessive form of names is rapidly disappearing, except in rare
cases where good reason exists for its retention. In most cases this is
effected by dropping the apostrophe and the final " s." In certain cases,
however, usage or euphony appears to require the retention of the final
" s" when the apostrophe only is dropped.
Concerning the termination "burg" or "burgh," as Pittsburg, an ox-
tensive correspondence has developed the fact that in more than three-
fourths of the places having this termination the final " h " is not in local
use. The case of the termination "boro" or "borough," as Attleboro.
is very similar. The present tendency is strongly toward the substi-
tution of the abbreviated form. The Board therefore deems it desirable
and advisable to induce uniformity in this matter in the manner indi-
cated.
In the case of the word " center " as part of a name, as Mansfield Cen-
ter, Center Rutland, usage appears to be about equally divided between
center and centre, and the Board has adopted the first of the above
forms of the word.
Hyphens, in connecting parts of names, appear to be useless, while
they add to the complexity of the spelling.
The practice of adding the letters "0. EL." meaning court-house, to
the name of a county seat is prevalent, especially in the southern states.
Frequently the place lias two names, one being its charter name, the
other the name of the county with " 0. II." appended; thus the comity
seat of Baleigh County, W. Va., is known as Beckley and as Raleigh
" C. H. "
The tendency toward simplification is in noway shown more decidedly
UNITED STATES BOARD ON GEOGRAPHIC NAMES. 7
than in the combination of the several words forming a name. Thns
"La Fayette" has become well nigh universally "Lafayette," "El Do-
rado" has become "Eldorado," etc. The Board approves this tend-
ency and will further it as far as possible without forestalling usage too
greatly.
The use of diacritic characters in geographic names, in the United
States, such as the German umlaut, the Spanish tilde, etc., is rapidly
disappearing. It would be impossible, even were it desirable, to op-
pose this change.
The practice of adding the word city or town, as Boise city, Marshall-
town, as a part of the name is a useless complication, growing in most
cases out of an optimistic spirit on the part of the promoters of the
place. It is often misleading and almost invariably unnecessary.
Outside of the United States, where the Department of State and
United States Hydrographic Office are chiefly interested, the work of
the Board is directed to the harmonization of American usage in geo-
graphic nomenclature with the usage of the great map-making nations —
England, Germany, and France. The Department of State, by reason
of its diplomatic and consular functions, is intimately concerned with
the present style, change of names, transfers of territorial jurisdiction,
cession and acquisition of territory by various governments abroad, and
the proper forms of the titular political nomenclature of foreign states
and nations. The interest of the Hydrographic Office is involved by
reason of its publication of charts and sailing directions of all foreign
waters, to the effective use of which uniformity of .geographic nomen-
clature is obviously indispensable. The forms of foreign names recom-
mended for adoption are determined on consultation of established
usage, the best authorities upon ethnological and political history and
derivation, and current geographic and political information from au-
thentic sources.
Many names in foreign civilized countries present a peculiar diffi-
culty and appear to require that a further exception be made to the
general principle of following local usage. This lies in the fact that
many foreign names have been anglicized and the anglicized form,
often quite different from the local form (meaning by local form that
in use by the best authorities in the country having jurisdiction), is well
established in usage in this country.
It is understood by the Board that our charts of the coasts of foreign
countries using Roman characters, made for the use of our Navy and
merchant marine, generally require the use of the local forms of these
names ; while, on the other hand, popular usage in this country, espec-
ially in our atlases and text books, requires the anglicized form. The
Board practically leaves this matter on the same footing as heretofore,
permitting the use of local forms of foreign names upon our charts, and
the anglicized forms upon maps designed for use in this country. It
hopes, however, that the way may be opened in the near future to the
adoption throughout of the local forms of these names, and the rejection
of the anglicized forms. In such specific cases as have been brought
to it^ attention, it has decided uniformly in favor of the local form.
Most of the nations of Europe, either through national boards or geo-
graphic societies, are engaged in the regulation of the orthography of
geographic names. Their attention has been particularly directed
toward producing uniformity in the transliteration of aboriginal names
written in characters other than Roman. These nations have practi-
cally agreed upon a system of transliteration, which, with one or two
exceptions, has been adopted by this Board, thus coming into practical
agreement in this matter with the rest of the civilized world.
8 UNITED STATES BOARD ON GEOGRAPHIC NAMES.
The matters above discussed have been formulated as principles for
the guidance of the Board in deciding specific cases. It must be under-
stood that these are not designed as rules, but as guiding principles',
from which the Board reserves liberty to depart whenever, in its judg-
ment, it deems it advisable to do so.
PRINCIPLES FOR SPECIAL APPLICATION IN THE UNITED STATES.
1. That spelling and pronunciation which is sanctioned by local
usage should in general be adopted.
2. Where names have been changed or corrupted, and such changes
or corruptions have become established by local usage, it is not in
general advisable to attempt to restore the original form.
3. In cases where what was evidently originally the same word ap-
pears with various spellings sanctioned by local usage, when applied to
different features, these various spellings should be regarded as in effect
different names, and as a rule it is inadvisable to attempt to produce
uniformity.
4. Where a choice is offered between two or more names for the same
place or locality, all sanctioned by local usage, that which is most
appropriate and euphonious should be adopted.
5. The possessive form should be avoided whenever it can be done
without destroying the euphony of the name, or changing its descrip-
tive application.
6. In names ending in " burgh," the final ah" should be dropped.*
7. Names ending in u borough'* should be abbreviated to uboro."
8. The word "center," as a part of a name, should be spelled as above
and not "centre."
9. The use of hyphens in connecting parts of names should be dis-
continued.
10. The letters "0. H." (Court House) appended to the names of
county seats should be omitted.
11. In the case of names consisting of more than one word, it is
desirable to combine them into one word.
12. It is desirable to avoid the use of diacritic characters.
13. It is desirable to avoid the use of the words city and town, as
parts of names.
PRINCIPLES FOR SPECIAL APPLICATION IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES.
14. Geographic names in countries that use Roman characters should
be rendered in the form adopted by the country having jurisdiction,
except where there are English equivalents already fixed by usage.
In cases where the English equivalent is so different from the local form
that the identity of the latter with the former might not be recognized,
both forms may be given.
15. The spelling of geographic names that require transliteration
into Roman characters should represent the principal sounds of the
word as pronounced in the native tongue, in accordance with the sounds
of the letters in the following system :
An approximation only to the true sound is aimed at in this system.
The vowels are to be pronounced as in Italian and on the continent of
Europe generally, and the consonants as in English.

In conclusion, the Board respectfully calls your attention to the fact
that it has no means provided for printing and circulating its decisions.
Thus far the bulletins of the Board have been published by various
bureaus represented. Through the courtesy of the Smithsonian Insti-
10 UNITED STATES BOARD ON GEOGRAPHIC NAMES.
tution, and at its expense, Bulletin Ko. 1 has been published, and an
edition of 7,000 copies distributed. The Coast and Geodetic Survey
has printed its second bulletin with an edition of 7,500 copies, and the
Light-House Board has through the Treasury Department printed the
third bulletin, with an edition of 8,000. This method of publication is
obviously unsatisfactory. It is important that the decisions of the
Board be promptly brought to the attention of the officers of the Gov-
ernment, and this can be done only by their prompt publication and
wide circulation. Judging from past experience, it appears that 10,000
copies of each of its bulletins will be required to meet the demands of
the Government Departments.
The general public, and especially the newspapers, the educators and
the educational publishers of the country have manifested great interest
in the work of the Board. Its decisions have been generally accepted
by geographers, publishers, and educators, and it seems on all accounts
desirable that these classes should be informed promptly and fully of
the decisions. To supply them would require an equal number, and
the Board asks that recommendation be made to Congress that proper
provision be made for printing and distributing these bulletins.
There are submitted herewith, as Appendix A, a list of the decisions
of the Board, and as Appendix B, a list of the counties of the United
States, with the spelling as authorized by the Board.

Disappointment, Cape. Washington.
" On the 6th of July, 1778, Meares, in
the sbip Nootka, arrived off the
cape and found that a 'prodigious
easterly swell rolled on the shore/
and he had soundings in 16 fathoms
over a hard, sandy bottom. ' After
we had rounded the promontory, a
large bay, as we had imagined,
opened to our view, that bore a
very promising appearance and
into which we steered, with every
encouraging expectation. As we
steered into the bay the water
shoaled to 9, 8, and 7 fathoms,
where breakers were seen right
ahead, and from the masthead they
were observed to extend across the
bay. We therefore hauled out.'
The name Cape Disappointment

This mountain has been locally
known for many years as Elliott's
Knob. The desire has been ex-
pressed to substitute the name of
Rogers, in honor of Prof. W. B.
Rogers, formerly the State geolo-
gist of Virginia, and a pioneer in
the study of the geology of that
State. This decision is based on
the grounds, first, that the name
Elliott Knob is well established;
and, second, that a mountain peak
in Virginia near the North Caro-
lina line has already been named
in honor of Prof. Rogers.

Bermuda. A group of small islands in
the Western Atlantic Ocean. Called Ber-

mariner, who discovered them in 1515.
In 1609 Admiral Sir George Somers, R.
N., in the "Sea Venture" found them
uninhabited. He was wrecked and died
there, and the islands were called after
him by his companions, "Somers Is-
lands/' Bermuda has been adopted as
the British official usage, and is the pop-
ular and all but universal designation.

Colon. A city and free port on the Atlan-

public of Colombia, founded in 1850 by
the Panama Railroad Company, and
named for William H. Aspinwall, one of
the railroad company's principal share-
holders, and afterwards president of the
Pacific Mail Steamship Company. The
official name given the city by the Co-
lombian Government is Colon, the Span-
ish form of the patronymic of Christo-
pher Columbus. Designated as Aspin-
wall by the United States Government
from the year of its foundation until 1882.
The Colombian name was adopted in the
latter year and has since appeared in the
printed diplomatic and consular list of
the Department of State as u Colon (As-
pinwall)," "Colon" being recognized
as the proper form, and "Aspinwall"
added in parentheses merely for the
purpose of distinguishing the place for
the guidance of persons unfamiliar with
the Colombian name.

. Haiti was the native name of the is-
land when Columbus landed on De-
cember 6, 1492, and called it Espag-
nola, which was latinized into His-
paniola. The French colony which
gained control of a part of the is-
land was called Saint Donringue,
and in 1795, when France acquired
the title to the entire island by
treaty with Spain, it was called
Saint Domingue, but when the
French were driven out, and inde-
pendence declared in 1804, the ab-
original name Haiti was revived by
the negroes. Shortly after this the
Spaniards reestablished themselves
in the eastern part of the island, re-
taining the French name modified
to Santo Domingo, but in 1821 lost
control, and from 1822 to 1843 the
whole island was under one gov-
ernment as the Republic of Haiti.
In 1844 the eastern portion of the is-
land again asserted its independ-
ence of Haiti and established the
Dominican Republic, which re-
mains to the present day.
Thus to-day the island of Haiti, which
seems to be the proper name, con-
sists of two countries, Haiti on the
west end and Santo Domingo on the
east end, the dividing line being
drawn from the river Pedernales on
the south to the river Massacre on
the north coast.
