History
Former Tanaina Indian village reported in 1930 by De Laguna (1934, p. 134). The names "Titukilsk and Nikishka" are combined in Ivan Petroff's 1880 Census and pertain to two small villages that had a total population of 57. Correlation of these two names with the present names, "Nikiski Wharf," "Nikishka No 2," and "Nikishka No. 3," has not been possible. It appears that the name "Nikishka" was applied several villages north of Kenai, of which Titukilsk may have been one.
