If there is a spot on the map that is not clear enough, let me know and I will try to read it on my copies or perhaps post the small piece for you.
Enjoy. Hope you like it as much as I do!

I note that Echo Pt now was Gerrish Pt back then. I'd find it fascinating to know when and why the various names changed. I note the Little Rattlesnake was listed as such on
the 1911 chart but I thought I saw Red Hen, not Red Head, on that one ?!? Must be my memory is faulty though IslandAl can verify. I see the 1886 chart sheds no new light on the Sanders/Saunders Bay question.
And I note that Guernsey Island had already been renamed Cow Island at that time.
