When a post office was established at this locale in 1862, it was named "Mohawk" after the river. The post office operated intermittently, and after being converted to a rural station in 1958, it was finally terminated in 1961. When the Southern Pacific Railroad established a station on the Marcola line there, it was named "Donna". Historically there was also a nearby locale known as "Mohawk Post".
