About this map

The Saint John River serves as a prominent international boundary, separating the United States from Canada in this northernmost region of Maine. The town of Fort Kent is the primary hub of activity, where the Fish River flows into the Saint John. This area is a crucial cultural and educational center for the St. John Valley, anchored by the Univ of Maine at Ft Kent.

Genealogists will find interest in the Old Saint Louis Catholic Cem and Saint Louis Cem, which mark the settlement's history near the river junction. The landscape north of the border is defined by a dense network of waterways, including Rivière Baker-Brook, Lac à Eugène, and Lac Caron, illustrating the shared topographical character of this borderland. Local travel is facilitated by corridors such as Frenchville Rd and Charette Hill Rd, which connect the upland farms to the river valley.
