The map also shows the locations of Fort Montgomery and Fort Mimms. The map includes a number of numerical designations of unknown meaning. There is an “Auburn University Libraries, Auburn, Alabama, Map Collection” property stamp dated July 16, 1990, in the lower right. The phrase “Work sheet. From Aerial Photos. Hale 1947.
