The first European to see it was Joseph Whidbey in 1794, master of the ''Discovery'' during George Vancouver's 1792-1794 exploration of the Pacific Northwest. The south point of the island was named by Vancouver ''Point Couverden'', "which I called after the seat of my ancestors".〔The small city of Coevorden in the eastern Netherlands.〕 The name was apparently later transferred to the island. The island is located in Haines Borough in southeastern Alaska. ==References==
