A nice, early map of Georgia with large tracks in the western part of the state shown belonging to the Cherokees and Lower Creeks. County configuration suggest a circa date of 1822 with the addition of De Kalb county from Fayette. The immense southern counties of Early, Irwin and Appling are marked with the notation, "Indian claim extinguished at the Treaty of Ft. Jackson."
