Map of parcels around the Marshall Creek

Heneman, Johan Christoph van

Title Leupe: Kaart van de Marchals Kreek met derzelver plantagien en gronden gekarteert volgens de gedaane meetingen.

This survey of parcels around the Marshall Creek was conducted on request of G. Luijcken and P. Dadel of the WIC. The cultivated lands are coloured and contain the names of the owners, designations, extents and the dates of concession. The areas yet to be cultivated are merely delineated and rarely display names or measures. Side creeks and (carriage) trails are also drawn. The map was signed on 6 October 1784.

North is right.

Scale-bar of 120 chains of 66 Rhineland feet = 160 ‘strepen’.
