About this map

The St. Lawrence River forms the international boundary on this modern survey, defining the landscape between New York and Ontario. The river's path is marked by prominent landforms such as Sparrowhawk Point and Rockway Point, while the northern waters open into Lake St. Lawrence. On the American shore, the rural character is maintained through scattered settlements and local landmarks like Lisbon Beach.

Genealogical interest is found in several small burial grounds including Union Cem, Martin Cem, and O'Neill Cem, which are tucked away among the grid of rural roads like Brown Church Rd and Nelson Bullrun Keystone Hanlon Rd. This riverfront area, including Galop Island and Whitehouse Bay, illustrates the modern-day distribution of agricultural land and small communities like Pine Grove along the northern border of Saint Lawrence County.
