Chester and Delaware Cos.
this map shows the courses, various streams and Fords on the Brandywine.
this map is one done by the surveyor for Chester Co, Joseph Taylor, and dated
1701. It is of the town of Chichester, also known as Marcus Hook.
Note the tiny houses along the bottom, representing various homes and
buildings. As all are different I imagine they are simplistic renderings
of the actual buildings....
