Map of parcels around the Marshal Creek

Lieftinck, Franciscus L.

Title Leupe: Kaart van de Plantagen gelegen in de Marchals Kreek, zoo mede van de nog te begeven gronden.

This survey of parcels around the Marshal Creek was conducted on request of the Governor-General Jan Nepveu. The cultivated lands are coloured and contain the names of the owners, designations, extents and the dates of concession. To be cultivated lands are merely delineated and often contain annotations that, judging from the years, were added after the map was completed. The map was signed on 5 July 1770.

North is lower right.

Scale-bar of 100 chains of 66 Rhineland feet = 95 ‘strepen’.
