1906 Map of Red Mills

USGS Topo · Published 1921

About this map

The St. Lawrence River corridor near the turn of the century serves as a busy international artery, where the Grand Trunk RR skirts the northern bank and complex water navigation systems define the border. At Red Mills, the landscape transitions from the river's main channel to a series of intricate islands and hazards, including the Galop Rapids. This survey, conducted in 1904, highlights the hydraulic engineering of the era, specifically the Galop Canal providing passage around the turbulent waters near Galop Island. Small inland settlements like Tilden, Boice, and Iroquois are connected by a network of early roads, while the river itself is dotted with named landforms such as Sparrowhawk Pt and Rockway Pt. The map provides a look at the rural northern border before modern seaway developments altered the shoreline of Waddington and Lisbon.
