1930 Map of St. Francis

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The confluence of the St John River and the St Francis River forms a critical segment of the international boundary between Maine and Canada, as surveyed in 1930. The river economy of northern Aroostook County is evident through the path of the Bangor and Aroostook railroad, which follows the southern bank to serve the settlement of St Francis. Further south, the landscape is defined by vast timberlands and remote outposts like Soucier Camp and Jones Camp, connected by rugged tote roads used for logging operations. Local community life at the time centered around small rural institutions, including the Lincoln Sch and McKinley Sch. The topography reveals a network of rapids and brooks, such as Rankin Rapids and Golden Rapids, which dictated the movement of goods and people before modern infrastructure reached this frontier region. Notable landmarks like McLean Mtn and Hunnewell Lake punctuate the heavily forested townships.
