About this map

Edwardsville sits at the southwestern edge of the expansive Black Lake, a prominent water feature that dominates this part of Saint Lawrence County. The landscape is defined by the transition from the Saint Lawrence River at Brooks Point to the wetlands and inlets of Upper Big Bay. Local settlements like Morristown Center and Galilee are linked by a network of rural roads such as Stone Church Rd and Scotch Bush Rd, reflecting the long-established agricultural and residential patterns of the region.

Genealogists and local historians can find markers of the community's past at the Davies Cem near the junction of Ogdensburg Rd. The map also details numerous small islands including Snake Island, Booths Island, and Jennies Island, which punctuate the waters of Mitchell Bay and the surrounding marshlands. These features, along with the course of Chippewa Cr and Fish Creek, illustrate the watery geography that has shaped life along the international border.
