McKissick Island (also known as McKissick's Island) is a former island in the Missouri River that is part of Nemaha County, Nebraska, United States. It is now fully east of the river, which is Nebraska's normal eastern border, and it can only be reached by land from mainland Nebraska by first going through Iowa and Missouri. It is sometimes described as a Nebraska enclave within Missouri, although it is not a true enclave, since it is physically attached to Nebraska through the river. The island was alluded to but not mentioned by name in the XKCD cartoon "River Border" on 27 April 2018.

| - La Isla McKissick (en inglés: McKissick Island) es una antigua isla de 5.000 hectáreas en el río Misuri, que forma parte del condado de Nemaha, Nebraska, pero ahora está al este de la frontera oriental de Nebraska y sólo se puede llegar a ella por tierra desde Nebraska si se pasa primero por Iowa y Misuri. A veces se describe como un enclave de Nebraska en Misuri, aunque no es un verdadero enclave, ya que está conectado físicamente a Nebraska a través del río. La isla siempre tuvo una pequeña población ya partir de 2006 se informó de que sólo una casa estaba en la isla. (es)

A veces se describe como un enclave de Nebraska en Misuri, aunque no es un verdadero enclave, ya que está conectado físicamente a Nebraska a través del río. Una disputa sobre si Misuri o Nebraska tenían jurisdicción sobre la misma se determinó en una decisión de la Corte Suprema de los Estados Unidos 1904 que no fue reconocida formalmente por los dos estados hasta 1999. La isla siempre tuvo una pequeña población ya partir de 2006 se informó de que sólo una casa estaba en la isla. (es)
- McKissick Island (also known as McKissick's Island) is a former island in the Missouri River that is part of Nemaha County, Nebraska, United States. It is now fully east of the river, which is Nebraska's normal eastern border, and it can only be reached by land from mainland Nebraska by first going through Iowa and Missouri. It is sometimes described as a Nebraska enclave within Missouri, although it is not a true enclave, since it is physically attached to Nebraska through the river. A dispute over whether Missouri or Nebraska had jurisdiction was determined in a 1904 United States Supreme Court decision, but it was not until 1999 that the two states entered an interstate compact, with the approval of the United States Congress, that enacted the boundary into law. The area is about 5,000 acres in size and has always had a small population. As of 2006 it was reported that only one house was on the island. The only road sign on it uses the Nemaha County street grid of 647A Avenue and 739A Road rather than the Atchison County, Missouri grid which surrounds it. The island was alluded to but not mentioned by name in the XKCD cartoon "River Border" on 27 April 2018. (en)
