Historical notes:
Often called the First Lords Proprietors' map, this map was included in John Ogilby, America, London, 1671, although separate copies were undoubtedly sold as promotional information to would-be settlers. Ogilby derived his map from John Lederer's map of 1672 and perpetuated many of Lederer's misconceptions. Also found in Samuel Wilson, An account of the province of Carolina in America, London, 1682.
