The Tanacross linguistic group focuses on the Tanana River from Healy Lake and east toward the city of Tok. The dataset was compiled from individual work by Craig Mishler, Rick Thoman, James Kari, and Gary Holton, and georeferenced by Rick Thoman and Gerad Smith. The names list is designed to accompany the published Tanacross Place Names List.
