Unalaska?

[edit]

Any relation to Unalaska, Alaska? Stuart Ravn (talk) 03:53, 9 February 2011 (UTC) Onalaska, Wisconsin, Onalaska, Arkansas (now defunct), Onalaska, Texas, and Onalaska, Washington are all historically linked to one another. They were all lumber towns. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:6C44:701B:300:5D65:8C2A:6F29:6655 (talk) 09:50, 27 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Some say that the name Onalaska (in the Lower 48) or Oonalaska, comes from Scottish poet Thomas Campbell's "Pleasures of Hope." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:6C44:437F:EA8B:79CC:264D:1369:CEED (talk) 19:27, 24 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
