Description
Stockdale's map of the Northern and Mid-Atlantic states, published in 1792.
The map is most notable for the many land grants showing Western Territory, which then included Ohio, Tennessee and the Old Northwest Territory. The grants include Illinois Company, Army Lands, Wagbash Company, New Jersey Company, Ohio Company, and the 7 Ranges, along with the Donation Lands from the Commonwealth of Virginia and General Clark's Grant 1500 acres.
Many settlements are noted in the West, along with early forts (Miami, Pitt, Venango, Chartres) and other interesting features. St. Louis appears on the map, as does Louisville, St. Genevieve, New Madrid, St. Philips, Cahokia, and the Kaskaskia Village.
A nice post-revolutionary war map of the region.
Condition Description
Some modern tape on several folds. Backed with paper in the 20th Century. Normally a $700 map.
