2 UNITED STATES BOARD ON GEOGKAPHIC NAMES. 
 
 The President op the United States: 
 
 Sir : The United States Board on Geographic ISTames, constituted 
 under the executive order of September 4, 1890, has the honor to sub- 
 mit to you herewith its first report : 
 
 ORIGIN AND HISTORY. 
 
 Th6*ncci&ssitj\|o^ ji-^eayd for inducing uniform usage and spelling of 
 geographic names i*n''the'J)uJ]>licatious of the Government has long been 
 appareigit.: •':;'•.'*!: *. /'. * *! 
 
 Th^e^'^re'^'everkl biirtgarus'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 paj)ers 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 attemi)t 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 spelhng to be adopted in such cases as should be brought 
 before it, and thus gradually to bring about uniff)rniity 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 Light- 
 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 could 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 ^vith the necessary authority by the following 
 
 EXECUTIVE OKDEU. 
 
 As it is desirable that uuiform 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 on Geographic Names, and designate tlie follnwing

 Ululer this iiiitliority the Board has held seventeen meetinii^s. It has 
 adopte<l a code of by laws for regulating? the transaction of business, 
 has agreed upon certain general princii)les for guiding its decisions,

 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. 
 
 Uuder these by-laws the Board was organized with Prof. T. C. Meii- 
 denhall as chairman, as pro^dded for in the Execntive 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 difli- 
 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 Board all cases occurring in the light lists concerning 
 which there is a dift'erence in usage or opi)ortunity for improvement. 
 These questions have been discussed and decided, and the decisions go 
 far toward settling the nomenclature of the coast and lake shores. 
 
 The Census Office has submitted to the 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 princijjles .") to 10, inclusive. (See 
 page 8.) As a part of this work the Board has, after examination and 
 the decision ot 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 fornuil 
 authority. The names of natural featur(:s, rivers, lakes, mountains, 
 capes, etc., and of unchartered bodies of population, have received their 
 names originally from explorers, survej^ors, and early settlers, and these 
 names have been perpetuated by common consent. The names 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. 
 
UNITED STATES BOARD ON GEOGRAPHIC NAMES. 5 
 
 DifteiPiices of usage exist to a large extent, not only in the names of 
 natural features and unincorporated plaees, but even in thoseolcMgan- 
 ized bodies of i)o])nlation whose nanu's have been bestowed by formal 
 authority. These dilferenees have originated in numerous ways. 
 
 In the imsettled parts of the country, diflerent exploring expediticms, 
 ignoring the work of their predecessors, have given new mimes to fea- 
 tures already named. As elsewhere noted, this difBculty has often oc- 
 curred in Alaska, which has been visited in recent years by numerous 
 exi)editions. 
 
 Tlie transliteration of Indian mimes has everywhere been a fruitful 
 soiu'ce of dirterences in sjx'lling, inasmuch as no two persons understand 
 alike or render into th«' same English characters the obscure sounds of 
 Indian munes. 
 
 It often happens in the case of the larger geographic features, such 
 as extended mountain ranges, rivers, etc., that different names have 
 been applied locall\' in ditferent parts, and these different names have 
 become well settled in usage. 
 
 It freciuently happens that railroads adopt names for their stations 
 dilferent 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-Oftice 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. Imleed, a list shows that 
 there are in this country thousands of cases where the name of the 
 post-oflice 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 r<'cognizing the importance of having but 
 one i)ost-office of the same name in each state. 
 
 By far the greater number of dinerences in usage, however, have 
 their origin in carelessness or ignorance on the part of those making 
 use of the names. Such errors a])pearing in print are frequently per- 
 ])etuated, es])ecially in popular works, and often supplant the original 
 name in usage. 
 
 Originating in these divergencies of siK'lling, there is distinctly 
 traceable a development of geograi)liic nomenclature, which is on the 
 whole i)roceeding in a benelicial direction. Its tendency is t^)wards 
 the discarding of ol>Jectionable names and tin; adoption of pleasing- 
 ones, and towards the simplihcation and abbreviation of names, j^ar- 
 ticnlaily as shown in the dropi)ing of silent letters. The Board, recog- 
 nizing this course of dcvcloiniicnt, deems it to be within its power to 
 guide it, and e\-en to forestall it, as far as its fnture course may be 
 foreseen. 
 
 Tin; extent to which geogra]>hic names have been moditied without 
 IxMng radi<'ally cliang<'<l is scarcely appi'eciated. A large proportn)n, 
 ])i(»])ably a majority of the nanu's of natural featur«'s ha\e undergone, 
 changes in spelling to a greater or less extent since they were first ap- 
 jdied, while of the names of political divisions, althongh established by 
 forimd act, a consi<leiable |)roportion have also (-hanged, and such 
 changes have, in thousands of <'ases, become lirmly establislM'd, There- 
 fore tlie i)osition assumed by some persons, that weshonhl revert to the 
 original foiins of nann-s, would, if carried out, result in changing the 
 names ot a large proportion of our natnral and artitieial features. 
 
6 UNITED STATES BOARD ON GEOGRAPHIC NAMES. 
 
 POLICY OF THE BOARD. 
 
 Tlie Board is agreed that iu general the name wliicli 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 nomenclatiu'e. 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. 
 
 {!)) 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. 
 
 (/i) 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 aj)pears to require the retention of the final 
 " s" when the apostrophe only is dropped. 
 
 Concerning the termination " burg " or " burgh," as Pittsburg, an ex- 
 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 Eutland, 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 "C. H.," meaning court-house, to 
 the name of a county seat is prevalent, especially in the southern states. 
 Frequently the place has two names, one being its charter name, the 
 other the name of the county with " C. H." appended; thus the county 
 seat of Raleigh 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 
 
 tliaii iu the oombiiiation of tlie several words j'oriiiinj; a name. Tims 
 "La Fayette'' has beeonie well iiij^h universally "Lafayette," "El Do- 
 rado" has beeonie " lOldorado," etc. The IJoard a])i)roves this tend- 
 ency and will further it as far as possible without forestalling usage too 
 greatly. 
 
 The use of diacritic characters in geogra])hic names, in the United 
 States, such as the German umlaut, the Sitanish tilTle, etc., is rapidly 
 disaitjiearing. It would be impossible, even were it desirable, to op- 
 pose this change. 
 
 The practice of adding the word city or town, as lioisi'city, Marshall- 
 town, as a i»art of the name is a useless comi)licati()n, growing in most 
 cases out of an optimistic spirit on tiie ])art of the promoters of the 
 place. It is often misleading and almost invariably unnecessary. 
 
 Outside of the Tnited States, where the Department of State and 
 United States llydrograpliic Ollice are chiefly interested, the work of 
 the Loard is directed to the harmonization of American usage in geo- 
 gra]»hic nomenclature with the usage of the great mai)-making nations — 
 England, Germany, and France. The Department of State, by reason 
 of its diphmiatic and consular functions, is intimately concerned with 
 the present style, change of names, transfers of territorial Jurisdiction, 
 cession and ac(piisition of territory by various governments abroad, and 
 the ])roi»er forms of the titular jxditical nomenclature of foreign states 
 and nations. The interest of the Hydrographic Ollice is involved by 
 reason of its i)ublicati<m of charts and sailing directions of all foreign 
 waters, to the etfe<'tive use of which uniformity of geograi»hic nomen- 
 clature is obviously indis])ensable. 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 <;ountries present a jieculiar ditfi- 
 culty aiul api»ear to recpiire tliat a further exce])tioii be made to the 
 general i)rinci])le of following local usage. This lies in the fact that 
 many foreign names have been anglicized and the anglicized form, 
 often (piite ditierent from the local form (meaning 1)y local form that 
 in use by the best authorities in the country having jurisdiction), is well 
 cstablisheil in usage in this country. 
 
 It is understood l)y the Hoard that our <'harts of the coasts of foreign 
 countries using Roman characters, made for the use of our Navy and 
 mer<-hant marine, generally recjiiire the use of the local forms of these 
 names ; while, on th<' other hand, jxtpiilar usage in this country, espe<'- 
 ially in (»ur atlases and t(!.\t Ixtoks, retpiires tlie anglici/.e<l foini. Tlu^ 
 Boar<l ])ra(*ticaily le-aNcs this matter on tlie same footing as lieretofore, 
 jiermitting the use of loc;il forms of foreign names upon our charts, and 
 the anglicized foiiiis upon majts designed for use in this country. It 
 lioj»es, jiowexer, thai tlie w;i_\ m;i\ be opened in tlie near future to the 
 ado|>tion throughout of tlie loc;il forms of these names, and the rejection 
 of the anglicized forms. In such specilic cases as have been brought 
 to \t< attention, it has decided iiniformly in favor <d"th«' loeiil form. 
 
 Most oftlu' nations of I<hii(»pe, eillier thiough national l)o;ii(ls or g«'o 
 gra])hi<; socit-ties, are engaged in the regulation of the ortliograph> of 
 geograj)hic names. Their attention has been ]>arliculaily directed 
 toward prcfilucing uniformity in the transliteration of aboriginal names 
 written in characters other than Koiinin, These nations inive practi- 
 cally agreed up(»n a system of ti ;uisIiter;itioii, which, with one or two 
 exc«'|)tions, lijis been adopted l»y this Pxciid, thus coming int<t practical 
 agreement in this matter with the icst 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 jyrinciples, 
 from which the Board reserves liberty to depart whenever, in its judg- 
 ment, it deems it advisable to do so. 
 
 PRINCIPLES FOtt 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 attemx)t to restore the original form. 
 
 3. In cases where what was evidently originally the same word ap- 
 jjears with various spellings sanctioned by lo(;al 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 adoj)ted. 
 
 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 "h" should be dropped. 
 
 7. Names ending in "borough" should be abbreviated to "boro." 
 
 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 "C. 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 Eoman 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

 tutioii, and at its expense, Bulletin No. 1 has been i)ublislied, and an 
 edition of 7,000 copies distributed. The Coast and Geodetic Survey 
 has printed its second bulletin Tvith 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, i)ublishers, and educators, and it seems on all accounts 
 desirable that these classes should be informed promptly and fiilly of 
 the decisions. To suf>ply them Avould 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. 
 
 Eespectfully submitted.

 " On the 6th of .July, 1778, Meares, in 
 the shij) Xooflca, arrived otT the 
 cape and found that a 'prodigious 
 easterly swell rolled on the shore,' 
 and he had soundings in IG 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 jironiising ai)pearance and 
 into wliieh we steered, with every 
 emouraging expectation. As we 
 steered into the bay the w.ntor 
 shoaled to 9, 8, and 7 fathoms, 
 where breakers were seen riglit 
 ahearl, and from the masthead tliey 
 were observed to extend .aerosH the 
 bay. We therefore hauled out.'

 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 i 
 the study of the gcoIo<j;y of that 
 State. This decision is based on 
 the grouuds, 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.

 The city was chartered in 1816, its 
 name being spelled without the /(, 
 and its official form is still Pitts- 
 burg. The /( appears to have been 
 added by the Post-Office Depart- 
 ment, and through that action local 
 usage appears to have become di- 
 vided. While the majority of local 
 newspapers print it without the h, 
 certain others use the final h.

 N., in the ''Sea Venture" found them 
 uninhabited. He was wrecked and died

 the British official usage, and is the pop-

 Colon. A citj^ and free port on the Atlan- 
 tic coast of the Isthmus of Panama, Re- 
 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 
 Paciiic 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 " 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 Domiugue, 
 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 tlio island, re- 
 taining the French name modified 
 to Santo Domingo, but in 1821 lost 
 control, and from 1822 to 184.3 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 estaldished the 
 Doniinrcan Republic, which re- 
 mains to the present day. 
 Thus to-day the island of Haiti, whicli 
 seems to be the proper name, ron- 
 sists of two countries, Haiti on the 
 west end and Santo Doniingo on the 
 oast end, the dividing line being 
 drawn from the river PiMlernah-son 
 the south to tlie river Massacre on 
 the north coast.
