Map of the island

Parker Island is an undeveloped island in the West Isles Parish of Charlotte County, New Brunswick, Canada, where the Bay of Fundy enters Passamaquoddy Bay. ^{[3] [4] [5]}

In 1832, Thomas Baillie wrote of an island south of Macs Island "which has been settled, but now is deserted. It contains about fifty acres, and is fit for a fisherman.", ^[6] which could reference Parker or Jameson Island.

In December 1985, a study by Parks Canada assessed the island's value as $26,100. ^[1]
