Description: 'NORTH AMERICA, SHEET IX., Parts of Missouri, Illinois and Indiana'Antique steel engraved map with original outline hand colouring (coloring), 1844Title of map: 'NORTH AMERICA, SHEET IX., Parts of Missouri, Illinois and Indiana' The map was originally engraved in 1833 (this date is printed on the map) and it depicts the area shown as at that date, although this edition was published in 1844. Indian settlements, villages and tribes existing in 1833 are marked on the map as tipi (teepee) symbols, along with some mines and mineral deposits. The Indian boundary concluded in the second and third Treaties of Prairie du Chien of 1829, in which Native American Tribes ceded land in present day Wisconsin and Illinois, is marked on the map as the "Indian Boundary of 1829". Chicago is marked on the map, along with the then "proposed canal which will unite the Gulfs of St Lawrence and Mexico Portage" which was eventually completed in 1900 as the Chicago Drainage Canal (now known as the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal).DATE PRINTED: This map was originally published by Baldwin & Cradock in 1833; this date is printed on the map. This edition of the map was printed and published by Chapman & Hall in 1844.
