DescriptionManuscript map of a lot in Oxford, New York, with subdivisions. The map is oriented so that the plot of land appears to run north-south, while in fact it probably ran southeast. An unnamed river (the Chenango) makes up the bottom boundary of the plot. The top and side boundaries are outlined in a light green line, while the subdivisions are outlined in yellow or red. Geographic coordinates of the outer and some of the inner boundary lines are provided, in directions, degrees and minutes. Additionally, the subdivisions' boundary lines are given in chains and lines, and their size in acres and perches.
