Note:
Early map of battle area, copyright 1855. Stephenson is probably wrong in dating this as 1863. We date it as 1861 because it is earlier than the copy we have that is entered in 1862 (which copy Stephenson misdates as entered in 1852). Folded into dark green textured cloth covers 14.5x9.5 with the title "Map Of The Seat Of War In Virginia, Maryland, &c. J.H. Colton." in gilt. Prime meridian is Washington D.C.
