Orange County, North Carolina, on Collet's map of 1770
About it
Hillsborough is the red block in the middle. The dashed circle marks the Flat River country, where William Churton surveyed 700 acres on Dial’s Creek for Thomas Collins in April 1761. Collet doesn’t name Dial’s Creek, so the circle shows the area, not the tract. The inset shows the whole map. From Molata, chapter two.
