About this map

The Saint John River forms the international boundary at the northern edge of this Aroostook County landscape, where the International Bridge connects Fort Kent Village to Canada. The area's heritage is deeply tied to the waterways, with Fort Kent Mills and Plourde Mill situated along the winding Fish River. This interior valley is characterized by established rural communities such as Soldier Pond, Wallagrass, and the distant Michigan Settlement to the east.

Local genealogy is well-represented through numerous sacred sites, including Saint Josephs Cem, Saint Josephs the Helper Cem, and the Christ Church Congregational Cem. The terrain rises from the riverbanks toward peaks like Stevens Hill and Michaud Hill, while the local road network—including Caribou Rd and Aroostook School Rd—traces the historic settlement patterns of the Upper Saint John River Valley.
