Map of Chatham County, NC by Capt. N. A. Ramsey, 1870

This reproduction of the original map by Capt. Nathan A. Ramsey shows rivers, bridges, mills, churches, roads and railroads, and many family locations. Ramsey was the Captain of Company D of the 61st Regiment, CSA. Organized in 1862, Co. D fought in battles in Virginia and North Carolina, and was sent several times to Chatham County to round up deserters. Their success depended on knowing the geography as well as the locations of families. In 1870 Ramsey put this information on a map. (17" x 22"). Includes index of names.
