Abstract:
This section of the map shows the northwestern limits of the cartographer's knowledge for the time period. It goes up to the Blue Ridge and stops. The map displays Mulberry Fields as the location of modern Wilkesboro. Today's South Mountains were then called Montague Mountains, and the 'Indian Road' running past Table Rock down to the Catawba River probably was the trail known as the Nickajack Trail.
