Note:
Although Church copyrighted this map in 1864, it was not published until 1883. Church made maps of all the Nova Scotia counties during the 1860's, but publication on many of the maps was delayed until the 1880's for financial reasons. With insets of Lunenburg, Bridgewater, Mahone Bay, Chester Basin, Chester, and Nova Scotia. Shows locations of houses and names of property owners. The style of cartography is minimal, with no decoration or views, yet achieving a spare elegance. With black top and bottom rollers. Full color by township.
