Dall, referring to 1866-67 (Contr. Am. Ethn., I, 23, 39), estimated the number of the Yukon Eskimo at 1,000 and that of the Yukon and Koyukuk Indians, from the mouth of the Tanana downward, at 2,800. Only a few sites of villages are incidentally given by Dall.
Ivan Petrof, as a special agent for Alaska of the United States Census for 1880, reports himself the following Indian settlements and numbers of inhabitants on the Yukon (Compil. Narrat. Expl. Alaska, 68; gives also data on Eskimo, but his arrangement and unidentifiable localities prevent these data from being used here):
| Anvik station and village | 94 |
| Single house | 20 |
| Single house | 12 |
| Single house | 15 |
| Tanakhothaiak | 52 |
| Single house | 15 |
| Chageluk settlements | 150 |
| Khatnotoutze | 115 |
| Kaiakak | 124 |
| Kaltag | 45 |
| Nulato, station and village | 163 |
| Koyukuk settlements | 150 |
| Terentiefs station | 15 |
| Big Mountain | 100 |
| Single house | 10 |
| Sakatalan | 25 |
| Yukokakat | 6 |
| Melozikakat | 30 |
| Mentokakat | 20 |
| Soonkakat | 12 |
| Medvednaia | 15 |
| Novo-kakat | 106 |
| Kozmas | 11 |
| Nuklukaiet | 27 |
| Rampart village | 110 |
| Fort Yukon | 82 |
Later demographic records on the Yukon and its tributaries and on the coast comprise additional data by Petrof, published as a part of the Eleventh (1890) United States Census and arranged by districts and linguistic groups; and the data of three subsequent United States Censuses, 1900, 1910, and 1920, which are given in differing ways, but in the main by major ethnic and territorial or jurisdictional subdivisions.
Due to incomplete enumerations; to the use of native estimates for actual count (as seems to have been the case with Dall's figures, as well as others); the different methods and classifications employed; and the inclusion of units now into one and now into another group (as with Petrof, who includes three Indian villages below Anvik among the Eskimo, etc.), the various counts are not comparable and give but hazy ideas of the true conditions. Yet they are not without value, particularly in showing the earlier population of the villages and the relative proportion of the sexes and ages. The more helpful details are given in the appendix; for still others see references in bibliography.
