Additional Details

The borders between the colonies are shown heading north or northwesterly rather than due west, so the future site of Chicago is depicted as part of Virginia, and New Jersey extends all the way up to the St. Lawrence. Indian nations are noted, but French claims to the area are ignored. Jolly, Maps in British Periodicals, Univ-41; McCorkle, New England 754.3
