The St. Francis River (French: ''Rivière Saint-François'') is a river roughly long, which forms part of the Canada–United States border. The river rises () in a lake of the same name located east of the Rivière du Loup in Quebec. The portion that forms the boundary starts at the bottom of Lake Pohenegamook at the very northernmost point of New England between Estcourt Station, Maine, and Estcourt, Quebec. The river flows generally south-east to its mouth on the Saint John River at St. Francis, Maine/Saint-François-de-Madawaska, New Brunswick.〔Bailey 1894 pp. 27–28〕 USS ''Bancroft'' (DD-256) became a Canadian ship as part of the Destroyers for Bases Agreement and was renamed after the St. Francis River to follow the Canadian tradition of naming destroyers after Canadian rivers while recognizing the shared national history of the ship.〔Milner 1985 p. 23〕 ==See also==
