I had downloaded a digital version of the 1784 Filson map of Kentucky before, but it wasn’t a large enough file to be able to zoom in and read any of the words. Today, I found a great digital file at http://digitalcommons.unl.edu/etas/3/
If I were to print the map at 100%, but would be about 7 x 8 FEET!!! I zoomed in on the Harrodsburg area and cropped it to see “my area of the world”. This would have been about 3-4 years after the Smiths received their land warrants.
