An interesting, detailed map represents the progress of surveying in the state. It clearly shows the Everglades, Big Cypress, the Northern Keys, Arredondo Grant, Forbes Purchase, Lake O-Kee-Cho-Bee, and numerous forts. Extends to include Key Largo (unnamed) and the keys above. The transition between the Everglades and the gulf is indistinct along the southwest coast. Issued from St. Augustine by R.A. Putnam, Surveyor General.
