lines are based on William Blodget's seminal map of 1791; coastal and river information
was derived from other sources. This second edition of the map is distinguished from
the exceedingly rare first state by the addition of “3 trees” east of the Hudson River in
Greenwich County, near the disputed portion of the western border with New York.
