Wonderful state and county map that details the county seats, roads, towns and settlements of the day. The northern counties are very large with little development. The entire upper portion of the state above the Indian Boundary is unorganized. In this area the tribal lands of the Sac & Fox, and the Winnebago Indians are noted. The county configuration is circa 1822. A fine engraving by Young & Delleker.
