History
The name is reported as "Little Eastern Rookery" by Elliott (1881, p.61); this rookery has 750 ft. of sea margin for seals. It was called "Little East Rookery" by Joseph Stanley Brown, U.S. Geological Survey in 1891, and by W.W. Duffield, U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey, in 1897. Putnam (1903, p.1015), USC&GS, gives the Aleut name as "Kreg'lucht'en-ang'ten-algarel'ogrey," meaning "the rookery at Kregluchten."
