- Description
Map of Connecticut showing counties, townships, cities, roads, islands, swamps, hills, mountains, lakes, rivers, reefs, and numerous other geographical and topographical features. A small key sits in the upper right corner, showing where churches and court houses appear on the map. The "oblong" portion, land disputed between New York and Connecticut, is labeled and bordered. An engraving of three small trees, labeled "3 trees," appears just east of the Hudson River, a survey marker presumably. A coastal scene, with trees, flowers, ships and rolling hills, decorates the title cartouche in the lower right corner, along with the crest of Connecticut.
