About this map

The Oswegatchie River carves a winding path through this corner of St. Lawrence County, shaping a landscape defined by its wetlands and elevation changes. In the village of Richville, the local road network centers on Main St and Depot St, where Maple Grove Cem and Wayside Cem mark the community's long-established boundaries. To the northwest, the terrain rises toward Huckleberry Mountain, surrounded by the drainage basins of Beaver Creek and the South Branch Beaver Creek.

Smaller hamlets like North Gouverneur remain anchored by landmarks such as the North Gouverneur Cem, while the natural topography features distinct landforms like Snowshoe Island and the broad Spooner Flat. The presence of Lead Mine Rd and Iron Works Rd hints at the area's industrial past, providing clues for researchers tracing early extractive activities and transport routes between the river and local lakes like Osborn Lake.
