Gillingham to separate Maryland's and Delaware's counties at a glance.

This printing comes from the atlas's rare original run, mapping a region whose coal, iron, and manufacturing industries had, by the late 1870s, made its rail network among the busiest anywhere in the entire country.

Pennsylvania, shown at the center of the sheet, is anchored by Philadelphia and its coalfields, the industrial engine behind much of the Union's wartime production.

This sheet focuses tightly on the Chesapeake Bay and its surrounding shores, giving unusually full treatment to Delaware alongside the more commonly mapped Virginia and Maryland.

New Castle, on the Delaware River, was at this date the colony's principal town, predating Dover's later rise as the recognized capital and serving as the seat of Delaware's colonial government and courts. Moll's underlying survey, on which this German edition draws, gave the Chesapeake's rivers and shoreline a level of detail that made the map especially useful for tracking the bay's many tobacco-shipping points.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 1745 Homann Heirs edition is a distinctive gift for a Virginia, Maryland, or Delaware family with colonial-era roots, a Chesapeake-region transplant, or a collector drawn to German engravings of English colonial sources. The store's earlier 1676 Speed-Lamb map covers much of the same Virginia-Maryland ground nearly seventy years earlier and from an English rather than German press, back when Jamestown and St. Mary's City, not Williamsburg and Annapolis, were each colony's seat of government; this later Homann sheet also adds the fuller Delaware coverage the Speed map lacks. It ships unframed and is available in a full range of sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TheMapVault","offers":[{"title":"16x20 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531897377099,"sku":"1920-16x20","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A2 (42x60cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531897409867,"sku":"1920-A2","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"18x24 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531897442635,"sku":"1920-18x24","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"50x70 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531897475403,"sku":"1920-50x70","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A1 (60x84cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531897508171,"sku":"1920-A1","price":40.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"24x32 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531897540939,"sku":"1920-24x32","price":40.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"70x100 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531897573707,"sku":"1920-70x100","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"75x100 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531897606475,"sku":"1920-75x100","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A0 (84x119cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531897639243,"sku":"1920-A0","price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/2456\/5323\/files\/SKU1920.jpg?v=1789839586"},{"product_id":"maryland-delaware-and-southern-new-jersey-map-1757-county-print-annapolis-dover-chestertown","title":"Maryland, Delaware \u0026 Southern New Jersey Map 1757 County Print - Annapolis, Dover, Chestertown","description":"\u003cp\u003eEngraved by Thomas Kitchin for the August 1757 issue of the London Magazine, this map of Maryland, the Delaware counties and the southern part of New Jersey was drawn directly from John Mitchell's landmark 1755 map of the British colonies and kept close to its scale. The London Magazine was one of the most widely read monthly periodicals in Georgian Britain, regularly running maps and essays to keep its readers abreast of the war then raging in America. Kitchin's engraving for the magazine trades the heavy ornament of a bound atlas plate for a crisper, more economical style suited to a periodical's smaller print run, yet still packs in a dense record of towns, counties, roads, rivers and bays. The sheet appeared alongside articles on the Six Nations of Indians, a Carolina fire and a destructive hurricane, giving readers a geographic companion to that month's colonial news, and it captures Maryland and Delaware in the middle of the French and Indian War.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnnapolis is marked as Maryland's seat of government on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay, while across the bay Chestertown appears on the Eastern Shore, then a thriving tobacco port on the Chester River. Dover anchors the Delaware counties to the south, recorded here still under Pennsylvania's proprietary government though administered separately as the Three Lower Counties. The map traces the Susquehanna River as it empties into the head of the Chesapeake, and extends north to take in Philadelphia and the southern reaches of New Jersey, showing how tightly the Delaware Valley colonies were bound together by water and trade. Numerous smaller towns, roads and county lines fill out the Eastern Shore and the Delmarva peninsula.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis print makes a fitting gift for anyone with family history on Maryland's Eastern Shore, in the old Delaware counties, or the wider Chesapeake world, and it pairs well with the store's other 18th-century views of the region drawn from Bowen, Speed and Homann's surveys, each covering the Chesapeake at a different decade and from a different cartographic hand. Where those maps favor atlas-scale detail, this Kitchin plate captures the same coastline through the eyes of a contemporary London magazine reader following the war news. It is available unframed in a full range of sizes, from a compact print for a hallway to a large-format piece for a den or office.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TheMapVault","offers":[{"title":"16x20 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531976282443,"sku":"SKU1922-16x20","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A2 (42x60cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531976315211,"sku":"SKU1922-A2","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"18x24 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531976347979,"sku":"SKU1922-18x24","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"50x70 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531976380747,"sku":"SKU1922-50x70","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A1 (60x84cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531976413515,"sku":"SKU1922-A1","price":40.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"24x32 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531976446283,"sku":"SKU1922-24x32","price":40.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"70x100 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531976479051,"sku":"SKU1922-70x100","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"75x100 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531976511819,"sku":"SKU1922-75x100","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A0 (84x119cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58531976544587,"sku":"SKU1922-A0","price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/2456\/5323\/files\/SKU1922.jpg?v=1789839583"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.themapvault.com\/sv-se\/collections\/delaware-maps.oembed","provider":"TheMapVault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
