The Tanana River, following a northwesterly course, bisects the area. This census area covers a total area of 25,061 square miles.  As of 2000, the population is 6,174. In 1994, the Sumitomo Company found substantial deposits of gold at its Pogo prospect 40 miles northeast of Delta Junction. These reserves, estimated at 5.5 million ounces may soon be developed by a joint venture between Teck/Cominco and Sumitomo. The company, Teck-Pogo, planned to finalize the permitting process for both the underground mine and surface mill in 2003. In addition to the anticipated growth in mining operations and military support activities, this region is Alaska's second most productive agricultural region. In 2001, farm production in the Tanana area yielded a value of more than $7.5 million.     Links: Township Locator Alaska Resources at Rootsweb Cyndi's List - Alaska Localities Interment.net - Cemetery Transcription Library Social Security and Death Index Birth, Death, Marriage, & Divorce Records Alaska State Vital Records Bureau of Vital Statistics Department of Health & Social Services 350 Main Street, Room 114 Juneau, Alaska 99811-0675 Phone: 907-465-3392 Lookup Volunteers Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness - Alaska Forums & Message Boards AlaskaWeb Queries GenForum Alaska Message Board RootsWeb Message Boards - Alaska       Mailing Lists: AKWEB: Alaska Genealogy & History - This is a statewide list intended for the exchange of genealogical, historical and cultural information about the state of Alaska and the ancestors who lived here.
