The earliest Coast Survey map of "Northwestern America (Alaska)" in 1867
shows "P.(for Port) Ilioluk". In 1869, the Survey published a harbor
chart for it, now titled "Illiouliouk and Captain's Bays". But by 1875
the same harbor chart became "Captains's Bay and Vicinity". By 1888, it
was back to being called "Iliuliuk Hr." In 1898, it was titled
"Unalaska B." Finally, in 1903, "Dutch Hbr." showed up for the first
time on a Coast & Geodetic Survey chart.
