About this map

The St Lawrence River defines this riverfront landscape, serving as the international boundary between the United States and Canada during the early 1960s. Along its banks, the village of Morristown stands as a focal point, supported by local infrastructure like the Central Sch and a prominent Water Tank. To the southwest, Jacques Cartier State Park occupies a significant stretch of the shoreline near Point Comfort, while inland, the community of Brier Hill and the adjacent Brier Hill Station suggest a landscape shaped by the Railroad and an Old Railroad Grade.

Social and civic history is anchored by family and community sites like Sunnyside Cem and Pine Hill Cem. The southern reach of the map transitions into the town of Hammond, where the rural character is punctuated by the Chippewa St Ch and small industrial features such as a Sand and Gravel Pit. The map captures a transition where river-based recreation and transport meet an established agricultural and rail-oriented interior.
