NEMAH, a town on the site of an old Indian village of the same name at the mouth of a river flowing into Willapa Bay. The river is also called Nemah or Nemar. There are many spellings of the word, which is an Indian word of unknown meaning. It may have come from one of the tribes of southwestern Washington, which have become extinct. (L. L.
