About this map

Moira and Brushton serve as the primary hubs in this part of Franklin County, where the agricultural landscape is woven together by a dense network of country roads and several significant waterways. The Little Salmon River passes through the northeast corner, while numerous smaller streams like Farrington Brook, Lawrence Brook, and Joy Brook drain the surrounding fields. The settlement pattern remains centered on historic crossroads, including the hamlet of Alburg and the junction at Irish Corners.

Genealogists and local historians will find a high concentration of burial grounds, providing a clear record of early local families. These sites range from the Moira Community Cem near the center of town to the Saint Peters Cem, Saint Marys Cem, and Sunnyside Cem grouped near the eastern edge. Outlying locations such as Sand Hill Cem and E Dickinson Cem underscore the dispersed nature of these rural North Country communities during their development.
