Reynet, J.

Title Leupe: Kaart van een stuk land, gelegen in Para Creeq, links in het opgevaren.

This survey of a parcel at the Para Creek was conducted on request of its owner, Daniel de Isle. The extent of the parcel turns out to be 1000 Surinamese acres; that is 430 hectares, of which only a small piece of land is cultivated. To the north (left on the map) the land of Hullekers can be found. The map was signed on 12 September 1733 and was ratified on 10 December 1733.

North is upper left.

Scale-bar of 100 chains = 120 ‘strepen’.
