TITLE OF MAP (NOT PRINTED ON THE PAGE):'Colton's Minnesota and Dakota'

The map shows Dakota Territory as it was in 1863. It was divided into two and admitted to the Uniion as the 39th and 40th states of North and South Dakota in 1889. The "northern route of Pacific Railroad as proposed by Gov. Stevens" is marked. In 1863, Idaho Territory included the present day states of Montana and Wyoming. A year after this map was published, Montana Territory was organized from the northeast third of Idaho Territory, and the southeast third of Idaho Territory was transferred to Dakota Territory. Wyoming Territory was later organized from portions of Dakota, Idaho, and Utah Territories in 1868.
