"Map of the Northern Parts of Ohio, Indiana and Illinois with Michigan, and That Part of the Ouisconsin Territory Lying East of the Mississippi River", Burr, David H.

This map covers the region from northern Ohio west to the Mississippi River and north to Lake of the Woods. A small but important sliver of land highlighted in pink reflects a boundary dispute between Ohio and Michigan - one that saw Ohio block admission of Michigan to the Union until the question was settled. The map also notes Indiana's revised northern boundary. Wisconsin came from the term "Ouisconsin" which is believed to mean "grassy place" in the Cheppewa tongue.
