113 - Veniaminof Volcano, Alaska

Midway up the Alaskan Peninsula, W of Chignik.



Wikipedia:

Mount Veniaminof is an active stratovolcano located on the Alaska Peninsula. The Alaska Volcano Observatory currently rates Veniaminof as Aviation Color Code Green and Volcano Alert Level Normal. The mountain was named after Ioann (Ivan Popov) Veniaminov (1797-1879), a Russian Orthodox missionary priest whose writings on the Aleut language and ethnology are still standard references.
The volcano was the site of a colossal (VEI 6) eruption around 1750 BC. This eruption left a large caldera. In modern times the volcano has had numerous small eruptions (over ten of them since 1930); these are located at a cinder cone in the middle of the caldera.
Veniaminof has one of the highest elevations of Alaskan volcanoes. Partly for this reason, it is covered by a glacier that fills most of the caldera. Because of the glacier and the caldera walls, there is the possibility for a major flood from a glacier run at some point in the future.

110 - Shedd, Oregon

In the Wilammette Valley, between Eugene and Corvalis.

Wikipedia history:

In 1858, a community and gristmill was established about a mile and a half east of the present town of Shedd and called Boston, probably because one of the founders came from Boston, Massachusetts.] Boston was platted in 1861 with a New England-style town square. The town became a stagecoach stop, and Boston Mills post office was established in 1869. Efforts to get the Oregon and California Railroad, which was being built south from Albany, to come through Boston Mills were unsuccessful. When the railroad was instead built through the nearby town of Shedd's Station in 1871, the post office was moved and the name changed to Shedds, after Captain Frank Shedd, on whose land the community was started. All of Boston's buildings, except the mill itself, were also moved west to the railroad. In 1899 the railroad changed the name of the station to Shedd, but the name of the post office didn't change until 1915.

109 - Richfield, Kansas

In the SW corner of the state, on the North Fork of the Cimarron.

108 - Quinn, South Dakota

Just N of Badlands National Monument. Some trivia: Population: 44. Street-wise, Quinn's Quincy St. turns back into Quinn Rd. once you cross Wall Dump Grounds Rd. Google search results returned for "Wall Dump Grounds": 0.

Quinn is home to the Badlands Observatory, a remotely operated telescope that takes advantage of some of the darkest night skies in the continental USA. The town and the local electric company have even cooperated to make sure that the local streetlights were either removed or rendered non-upwardly-polluting. Pretty cool—small-town astronomy.

Evidently the town founders also had alphabet geography on their minds:

How did Ituna get its name?

At the time that the railroaders were building the mainline of the Grand Trunk Railroad they had the task of finding names for the little towns along the way. Many of these towns were no more than seven miles apart and an attempt was made as far as possible to name the towns in alphabetical order. As such, there was Fenwood, Goodeve, Hubbard and then a name beginning with the letter "I" was needed.
Perhaps the name was just copied from a town in Oklahoma of the same name, however, it is believed that the name originally came from Rudyard Kipling's story "Puck of Pook's Hill". In this story we read about "The Wall which stretched from Segedunum on the east to Ituna on the west". The Wall is Hadrian's Wall, built by the Romans to keep back the marauding Scots. Ituna was the wide estuary of the River Forth at the end of the wall.
We have a unique name, ancient in origin, and found no where else in Canada.
