McGraws Island (formerly Mathew Island[1]) is an undeveloped island in the Saint George Parish of Charlotte County, New Brunswick, Canada in the Bay of Fundy.[2][3][4]

In 1875, a fishing weir was licensed off the island to Andrew and James McLean.[5]

The power lines from the mainland run through McGraws to Hoyt Island to Macs Island to Pendleton Island before reaching Deer Island, New Brunswick.
