Note:

Second edition (first edition 1826) of one of the earliest locally produced maps of Northeastern Ohio. Streeter on the first edition: "the finest map produced by an Ohio engraver and pioneer printer." Streeter incorrectly names the mapmaker as "Savery Pitt." Actually, in the lower right corner of the map the engraver is listed as "Savory, Pitt." HRB located a William Savery in Pittsburgh working as an engraver during this period, so we assume he engraved this map. The publisher of the 1826 edition was William Sumner. There is text and population statistics under the map, regarding the history of the area. Harris' Pittsburgh business directory for the year 1837, and the Standard history of Pittsburg, Pennsylvania give name as William Savory (see "Map of the Western Reserve including the Fire Lands in Ohio" at http://web.ulib.csuohio.edu/SpecColl/maps/SavoryPitt.html.
