Description	This image is a map of the state of Alabama in 1842, showing the geographical, political, and administrative features at that time. Rivers are shown clearly. Relief is shown by hachure. Counties are highlighted by bold lines. Cities, towns, and forts are labeled. Grid lines are used to show townships. Transportation routes like canals, railroads and roads are labeled. A phrase "Entered according to the Act of Congress in the year 1842 by Sidney E. Morse & Samuel Breese in the Clerks Office of the Southern district of New York" is printed under the bottom neat line. There are two copies of this map. The first copy is a photocopy and is laminated. But the image is not very clear and that made some of the information hard to read. This image is the second copy. It is also a photocopy and is encapsulated. Except for some tape marks on the four corners, the map is in good condition.
