The Republic of Texas is shown with its northern boundary extending to 42 degrees N. latitude. With some transitional territorial configurations including a large California Territory extending nearly to Texas with a small version of New Mexico sandwiched in between. Within California are early references to the gold-related Neuva Helvetica and Sutter's Fort. Sometimes referred to as the 'Tables Map' because a table on each side of the map offers selected statistical information including details on the "Three Divisions" of Texas. The map contains interesting versions of treaty boundaries drawn and a table of explanations provides treaty dates. Wheat says the map was likely prepared for the General Land Office to show 1848 Guadeloupe-Hidalgo treaty lines. Hand coloring is used to indicate other treaty boundaries including Great Britain 1783 & 1784; Spain 1795; France 1803; Spain 1819; and Great Britain 1846. Lithographed by Duval in Philadelphia.
