This pocket map of the state shows county development current to 1843 with Barbour County being organized in present-day northern West Virginia. It shows good detail of topography, rivers, towns and settlements, and only a handful of railroads are shown at this time: Baltimore to Washington/Cumberland/Winchester, Fredericksburg to Richmond/Petersburg/North Carolina border, Gordonsville to Hanover, and Portsmouth to the North Carolina border. Additionally, a canal along the James River connects Richmond to Lynchburg. Features an inset of the District of Columbia at top left and a table showing stage routes through Virginia at top right. Engraved by E. Yeager and F. Dankworth. The map is detached from the boards and just the front cover is present.
