1906 Map of Brier Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1918

About this map

The St Lawrence River serves as the dominant spine of this northern borderlands survey, defining the boundary between the Dominion of Canada and the United States. During this era of burgeoning international commerce, the river is a busy corridor of movement, reflected by the Grand Trunk R R tracing the northern bank through Prescott and Brockville, while the New York Central serves the southern shore. On the New York side, the settlement of Morristown stands as a focal point, flanked by recreational spaces like Edgewater Park and Terrace Park. Inland, the landscape transitions toward Black Lake, where the Narrows and the community of Edwardsville mark a more interior, water-dependent economy. The map captures a moment when small hamlets like Brier Hill and Galilee were connected by a web of local creeks, including Chippewa Creek and Fish Creek, illustrating the dense agricultural and rail-linked interior of St. Lawrence County.
