About this map

Saint Regis Falls sits at the heart of this mid-1960s survey, where the St Regis River tumbles over falls and past a gaging station. The landscape reflects a transition from the structured village grids to the protected wilderness of the Adirondack State Park and State Forest Preserve. Settlement is concentrated along the river valleys, with Dickinson Center and Dickinson serving as northern hubs connected by a network of rural routes like Akins Road and Port Kent Road.

Genealogists can trace several local burial grounds, including Fairview Cem, Ives Cem, and the cluster of St Anns Cem and Forest Cem near the town center. The industrial and transportation history of the area is evidenced by numerous gravel pits and the visible Old Railroad Grade cutting across the northern township. To the south, the terrain becomes more remote, marked by landmarks like Lake Ozonia and a remote Landing Strip, illustrating the region's character as a gateway to the Adirondack interior.
