Miscellaneous InformationSo far, we found very little information about Eunola. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1> We've added Eunola to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. If you can help us with Eunola, please Contact Us. Various Identification Codes ...GNIS Codes ...The U.S. Board on Geographic Names (BGN) was created to address the problems caused by spelling and naming variations. The BGN will usually recognize an existing name or, when necessary, chose a name for a geographic feature (such as a mountain, lake, river, stream, city, town, village, dam, bridge, etc). The BGN names are kept in a database called the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and it is the official Federal repository. The GNIS is operated and maintained by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). A unique and permanent identifier has been assigned for each name in the GNIS database. These names and identifiers are definitive and it is intended that they are to be used by all departments of the Federal Government: GNIS ID for Eunola: 2406468 GNIS ID for Geneva County: 161556 GNIS ID for Alabama: 1779775 FIPS Codes ...In a past effort, various federal agencies created a set of codes with a purpose similar to the GNIS codes. These codes are called the Federal Information Processing Standard (or the FIPS 55 codes). Although they are still used by some organizations, the FIPS codes are obsolete and will ultimately be replaced by the GNIS codes. While FIPS codes have been assigned to all counties and states, a specific code has not been assigned to Eunola. The following FIPS codes apply to the State and County:
Regional Codes ...For statistical purposes, the US Census Bureau has divided the country into four Regions. Eunola would have been located in Region #3 (the South Region). In turn, the US Census Bureau has further divided each Region into Divisions. Eunola would have been located in Division #6 (the East South-Central Division). The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has created ten Federal Regions. Eunola would have been located in Region IV (Region 4). The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has created ten Management Regions. Eunola would have been located in Region IV (Region 4).
