Item Details
Description
  • Map: Geographical, Statistical and Historical Map of Michigan Territory
  • Cartographer: Carey & Lea
  • Publishing: Philadelphia, 1822
  • Size: 17 x 21.8 inches

    This is the first map only focused on Michigan Territory. There is little evidence of human habitation, towns and forts, shown except in the southeast, near Detroit by Lake Erie and Lake St. Clair, and by Green Bay, in today’s Wisconsin. The Indian Line separates the territory roughly in half, with four counties named, but undesignated, in the southern section. Lake Michigan is somewhat misshaped. Subsequent to this map, the US Congress awarded Michigan the Upper Peninsula in exchange for moving the Ohio state line northward slightly to allow a proper port to form, called Toledo, on the Ohio side. Also the Western shores of Lake Michigan were awarded to Wisconsin. Two side panels in English flank the map providing plenty of details of the new territory and noting the total population at 8,896 in seven counties.
