"The Middle States and Western Territories of the United States Including the Seat of the Western War", Carey, Mathew

This rare copper engraved map covers the region from New Jersey to Illinois and names Indiana, Kentucky, Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Delaware. The northern borders of Illinois and Indiana are aligned with Ohio, so they are south of Lake Michigan. Chicago and Fort Dearborn are correctly on the lake, but occupy an unnamed region west of Lake Michigan. Michigan is named and Detroit is located. The capitols of Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio are given as Kaskaskia, Vincennes, and Chilicothe, respectively. The map was made to show the region involved in the War of 1812 with the British.
