Map of the Settled Part of Wisconsin Territory compiled from the latest authorities. Philadelphia: Published by Hinman and Dutton No. 6. North Fifth Street. 1838.

DESCRIPTION: SOLD

Very rare map of the nascent Wisconsin Territory from 1838, published by Hinman and Dutton, Philadelphia: "Map of the Settled Part of Wisconsin Territory compiled from the latest authorities." With an inset map: "The Entire Territory of Wisconsin: as established by act of Congress April 10, 1836." Engraved by J.H. Young.

One distinguishing feature between this map and a later similar map published by Mitchell is (1) the presence here of the Dubuque District (in blue) without county boundaries and (2) the inclusion of land owned and attributed to the Sacks and Foxe Indian tribes west of the Dubuque District, demarcated with "Indian Boundary."

First published "According to an act of Congress in the year 1837 by Hinman and Dutton in the Clerk's office of the District Court of the eastern district of Pennsylvania."
