Kashnor notes, "A good map of California and the North-West, locating San Francisco, Hyerba Buena, Santa Barbara, Lake Yentaw, &c. Shows Oregon with boundary, but the coast, colored red as if British, south of the Columbia, and locates Clatsop, Forts Vancouver, Nezperces, Okanagan, and Colville." Kashnor dates ca. 1840, RLIN record dates as 1854, however state of information inland from San Francisco indicates earlier date as more probable. Also the 48th parallel border between Canada and the United States extending only to the Rocky Mountains. See also 105:240M. Prime meridian: GM. Relief: hachures. Graphic Scale: Miles.
