DescriptionMap of the original territory of Middletown, Connecticut, from the northwest quarter and lots in or near the plans to the north, the Three Mile Division to the east, the southwest and south quarters to the south, and the western tier to the west. The Connecticut River runs through the center. The various divisions are labeled with names and dates, and the division in the center contains the names of further subdivisions. It is also shaded in, which, according to the Key located in the bottom right corner, means that the land was divided between 1650-1671. As well as detailing the old boundary lines of Middletown in 1671 and the division boundaries, the map shows the present town lines.
