Welcome to Hydaburg,
Alaska
Hydaburg founded in 1912 and presently reporting
a population of 380, is located on the southwest coast of Prince
of Wales Island. Its fascinating history can
be traced back to the 1700s, when Haida Indians came to Prince
of Wales Island from Graham Island, located off of British Columbia.
Three Haida villages, Sukkwan, Howkan, and Klinkwan, combined
in 1911 in order so that their children could attend school.
The next year it was designated as the Hydaburg Indian Reservation.
A trading company, sawmill, and village store were soon to follow.
In 1926, the land was redesignated to its former
status as Tongass National Park but close to 200 acres were set
aside for the school and the surrounding town. A fish processing
plant and three canneries were opened in the late 20's and 30's.
The amending of the Indian Reorganization Act in
1936 to include Alaska Natives, allowed Hydaburg to be the first
village in Alaska to form an IRA Council. Hydaburg continues to
flourish and today boasts the highest population of Haida in Alaska.
Much of the lifestyle centers around subsistence hunting and fishing,
and traditional arts such as wood carving and weaving are still
a way of life.
