Collection of 4 maps. Each covers the area north and east of the Raritan River and south of the Passaic River. All show at least one west line from Newark Bay; these lines are similar to ones at issue in a 1745 suit brought by J.D. Stair and others. Some also show roads, villages, homesteads and marshland. One map shows "Elizabeth Town Company's Purchase; another, "the Beginning of the Eliz. Town Pattents (at Coles Point) obtain'd In or about the year Anno 1661 by John Bailey, Danl Denton & Luke Walton," and a third refers to the case "Kelly @ Boardwell."

4 maps : ms. ; 54 x 98 cm. or smaller.
