U$ 23: Raider Nick's reef, in the Doomsgurgle Straits.
This is in duckburg or anywhere near, anyway.
It's somewhere along the Canadian coast (p 4, panel 1:
"We came in to resign, sir! Ran most of the way from Canada!").
The ships come down from Sitka (p 5, panel 5), Alaska.
Scrooge and Louie fly to the the lighthouse and arrive the
next day (p 5, panels 7-8).
U$ 63: It's the castle of the ancient mad Duke of Duckburg.
"Duke" probably is a nickname. How could there have
possibly been a Duke in Duckburg? (Unless he's a
foreigner.) Anyway, this was probably just for the
sake of the alliteration and the Gothic setting.
You may also need the prison's name: the "Studious
Hours Prison".
Are you preparing this map for a web site?
Visitors of my own M&D (http://members.nbci.com/mouse_ducks)
must have seen the announcements for a map in the making. It's a map
of the places the ducks and the mouse ahve visited throughout the world--
and beyond! (or beneath...) It's still in the making, though, so it won't be
available for some time-- I'm not even ready to display a work-in-progress
map.
Good luck with yours.

(No nitpicking intended, but these of course are not "translations",
but the *original* names ; ) )
