Historical notes:
This Key Sheet was sold separately and also bound in with Popple's 20 sheet map. Popple worked with the Board of Trade & Plantations in 1727, during a period when boundary disputes in the colonies began to accelerate the need for detailed maps. He didn't complete the whole map until 1733.
