About this map

Pope Mills sits at the northern end of a network of small settlements and agricultural crossroads in St. Lawrence County. The landscape is defined by the expansive waters of Black Lake, which features a complex shoreline of inlets like Upper Deep Bay and Orchard Bay, and a chain of islands including Elizabeth Island and Big Island. This modern survey illustrates how local roads like Hutton Rd and Co Rd 10 connect these rural communities to the surrounding natural features.

Further south, Brasie Corners and Ruby Corner serve as interior landmarks between the lake and the Oswegatchie River. Several burial grounds, including Oldsville Cem and Pine Hill Cem, are preserved across the terrain, offering essential points of interest for genealogical research. Smaller bodies of water like Hickory Lake and Pleasant Lake punctuate the landscape, fed by numerous seasonal flows such as Birch Creek and Beaver Creek.
