Best Answer

You might be thinking of the Saint Regis River in Northern New York.

More likely, it might be the Saint Lawrence River, which was called the Kaniatarowanenneh by the Mohawk and Kahnawáˀkye by the Tuscarora Tribe. The river is connected through several lakes, and it's name changes through it's course. From the source, south to it's mouth it is variously called North River, Saint Louis River, Lake Superior, Saint Mary's River, Lake Huron, Saint Clair River, Lake Saint Clair, Detroit River, Lake Erie, Niagara River, Lake Ontario, and the Saint Lawrence River. See the link I have provided for a good picture of how this came to be.

The Saint Lawrence River forms part of the International Border between Ontario, Canada, and the state of New York
