About this map

The St Lawrence River serves as the international boundary and primary geographic corridor in this 1904 survey, separating New York from the Dominion of Canada. On the American shore, Waddington and Louisville anchor the local economy, while the Canadian side shows established settlements like Morrisburg and Aultsville. Significant engineering is visible along the waterway, including the Rapide Plat Canal and Farrans Point Canal, which facilitated shipping around the river's treacherous rapids. Inland, the landscape of St. Lawrence County is defined by the winding paths of the Grass River and smaller tributaries like Sucker Brook. This era captures the region prior to the massive mid-century changes of the Seaway project, showing original island configurations such as Ogden Island and Gooseneck I. Transport is dominated by the Grand Trunk RR on the northern bank and a network of country roads connecting hamlets like Chase Mills and Chipman.
