Publisher: Manuscript Type: Separate Map Object Height cm: 43 Object Width cm: 55 Scale 1: 18,250,000 Note: A map drawn by Amanda Chapin when she was 19 and lived in Smetport, Pennsylvania. The date of 1832 is not on the map, but is on a piece of paper attached to the frame the map was in. Comparing the map to atlas maps of the period around 1830, the date seems appropriate.
