Note change in spelling of Mississippi. The title cartouche shows the head of a man and ornamentation. The map shows many geographic features. The original appeared to have been hand colored.


I have selected interesting, old 18th through early 20th century graphic images for digital restoration and editing. The images were then adjusted and brightened to make the images suitable for display and other purposes. The resulting image brings out many details and landmarks, making this map a great historical reference and conversation piece. © 2022 for this restored reproduction.
