Refimprove date March 2009 Port Wakefield, Alaska is a ghost town on the north east coat of Raspberry Island Alaska in the Kodiak Archipelago located in the Gulf of Alaska . It was established shortly after World War II by Lowell A. Wakefield 1909 1997 and named in his honour , after he relocated his father, Lee Howard Wakefield s salmon cannery business, Apex Fish Company, from Anacortes , Washington, renaming it Wakefield Fisheries ref http www.passportland.com images wakefield john 1972 wakefield john 1972.html ref . Wakefield, who is regarded as the founder of the Alaskan king crab industry, introduced the canning of king crab , partly because of declining salmon stocks in surrounding waters. As well as the cannery, cedar log houses and a church were built for the workers. Port Wakefield suffered badly in the 1964 Alaska earthquake and tsunami , when Raspberry Island subsided by as much as six feet. This was the most powerful recorded earthquake in North American history, and the third most powerful ever measured by seismograph with a moment magnitude of 9.2 and registered 8.4 on the Richter scale. The town was not destroyed, but the cannery and community were no longer viable. The land was eventually purchased and is now used for tourism, as wilderness lodges. The crab cannery was relocated to Port Lions on Kodiak Island , in a much more accessible location, with a good dock and harbor facilities. The cannery was connected to Port Lions by a long causeway and a new road. Some of the cedar log houses were moved on barges from Port Wakefield to Port Lions, where they still stand. However, the cannery burnt down and has not been rebuilt since.
