This interesting little map is taken directly from Herman Moll's map made for Oldmixon's British Empire in America. The map retains the English nomenclature and locates English Plantations and Indian Plantations and Houses as noted in the key, as well as a great deal of other interesting information. Size does not include the German text panels at left. This map has been trimmed from a folio map titled Dominia Anglorum in America Septentrionali, which contained four maps of the British colonies.
