Pam,

There are a couple titles that show up in WorldCat. Do you have any more
information? Such as ... what is the title of the 1861 map that is NOT
the right map? What is the title of the right map? Anything? Was it
produced as part of a report??

We don't seem to have it though it may be folded into a report ...

A few titles that appear in WorldCat ...

I'd like to know if someone has actually put the map(s) that Meade made
up on the web.  There are references to it in a Supreme Court decision
in the early 1900s but I simply find the map - only references to it.  I
just may not see the tree for the forest (or the other way around
<vbg>).  The Univ. of Wisconsin, Superior has a photocopy/reproduction
of it but they don't have it up on the web.

The maps were published by the Army Corps of Engineers in 1861. This is
not the same as the William Hearding Duluth-Superior Harbor Chart of 1861.

Thanks
