CLIMATE: Mild climate during the summer time. The area often recieves strong winds from the lake

COMMENTS: Jarvis River is a small settlement located a few miles north of the US/Canadian border besides the Highway headed towards Thunder Bay, Ontario. I believe that at least two homes are still occupied in the Jarvis River area.

The history of Jarvis River is currently unknown. The settlement is listed on an online Canadian gazetteer. Submitted by: Ryan J. Hill
