In addition, nearly of farmland were completely destroyed.(Barnes, 1997) Since the train station was never rebuilt, Nunica never recovered from the devastating fire and the population went into freefall. The current population of Nunica is estimated at 400. (Barnes, 1997) In 1872, the town of Nunica was officially incorporated, the name taken from the Ottawa word for zinc.
