DescriptionManuscript map of parts of Canada around the St. Lawrence River, the part of New York State around the Hudson River, and most of New England. The only boundaries depicted on the map are the one dividing New York State from New England and Massachusetts and New Hampshire from Vermont. Rivers and lakes are quite prominent on the map, with the majority of the towns that are included found near the St. Lawrence River, the Connecticut River, the Hudson River, Lake Champlain and along the coast. The smaller rivers, such as the Merrimack and La Moille (now called the Lamoille) River, are also depicted. In what is now Maine, there are two areas that have been divided into squares, with the squares in the larger area numbered and labeled as “ranges.” Three of the squares in the smaller area have been numbered but not labeled. Below them is a square labeled “East Andover.”
