SKU: P-6-103385
'A map of the States of Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia; comprehending the Spanish Provinces of East and West Florida: exhibiting the boundaries as fixed by the late Treaty of Peace between the United States and Spanish Dominions. Compiled from late surveys & observations by Joseph Purcell'
A fine example of Purcell's map of the Southern United States and Midwest with original colour. Includes an early reference to the "New State of Franklin" in Western Carolina and Eastern Tennessee. The map shows the boundaries between the United States and Spanish Dominions, American Indian Nations land claims, towns, roads, villages. Other early details shown include counties, Indian trading routes, the Cumberland Settlement, the Seven Ranges, Ekanfanoka Swamp (Okenfenokee), Port Vincient (Vincennes), The Illinois Company, Ohio Company, "New Jersy [Jersey] Company" and Army Lands. Colonel Syms Land, the donation lands from the Commonwealth of Virginia and General Clark's Grant are also shown. The region north of the Ohio River is named the New States, although the map predates the delineation of Ohio, Indiana and Illinois.
