Scope and content
Original hand drawn map shows early downtown Truro, "Sept. 9, 1838" appears in pencil as well as "44".
Shows the first streets in Truro with placement of homes and homeowner names.

Several items seem to have been corrected: erased and moved in the same hand - perhaps this was a work in progress. Creator unknown.
