A new map of the state of California, the territories of Oregon & Utah, and the chief part of New Mexico, (1850)
subject: Washington (State)--Boundaries Washington Territory Oregon Territory--Maps California--Maps Utah--Maps Utah Territory New Mexico--Maps DeSilver, Charles Mitchell, S. Augustus Cowperthwait, Thomas
description: 1 map: col., 44 x 35 cm A hand colored map including the Oregon Territory (pink)--comprising the area that would later split into Washington Territory in 1853. The map also includes the newly formed State of California. Its population boomed following the discovery of gold in 1848 and the rush of 49ers into the area the next year. Note also Utah Territory (green). Worried by the streaming mass of miners coming into the area in 1849, the Mormons invited Europeans interested in their faith(particularly from England) to come and populate Utah. This map, published by Thomas Cowperthwait & Co., may be from an atlas set contracted to him by S. Augustus Mitchell. Cowperthwait began publishing Mitchell's New Universal Atlas in 1850, printing the atlas until 1856. (At that time it was taken over by another well-known mapmaker, Charles DeSilver.) Cowperthwait continued to use Mitchell maps in various forms well into the 1880s.

Johnson's Washington Oregon and Idaho, (1863)
subject: Washington (State)--Boundaries Washington Territory Oregon--Maps Idaho--Maps Idaho Territory Montana
description: 1 map: hand col., 35 x 46 cm Map publisher Alvin Jewitt Johnson purchased steel plate engravings and copyrights from mapmaker J.H. Colton sometime around 1859. To conserve the plates, Johnson transferred the information from steel to lithographic stone, making updated adjustments/corrections when needed. He also added decorative borders and colors applied by hand to the maps. This map, showing the borders of Washington Territory, the State of Oregon, and the newly formed Territory of Idaho, may well have been taken from a Colton template. Note that the Montana/Idaho border had not yet been added at the Bitterroot Mountains. Montana became a territory in 1864.

(W 118°10--W 116°09/N 48°00--N 46°32) When Washington Territory was created out of the Oregon Territory in 1853, newly appointed Governor Isaac Stevens immediately pushed for the surveying of a route over which a transcontinental railway could be run. To this end, he asked for and got several teams of government surveyors who proceeded to begin charting passes and routes across the Washington Territory. As the best routes were eventually chosen, the survey of the specific route began in 1858. The Mullan road (named for John Mullan, the primary surveyor of the route and the man subsequently placed in charge of the road's construction), a permanent wagon road from the Mississippi River to the Puget Sound, was constructed in 1859-1860. In 1861 and 1862, an improved road was constructed and slightly rerouted. When the Northern Pacific Railroad was built approximately a quarter century later, it followed Mullan's route very closely.

Identifies by name winter campsite, mountain peaks and prairie. Shows trails of reconnaissance Scale 1:300,000 When Washington Territory was created out of the Oregon Territory in 1853, newly appointed Governor Isaac Stevens immediately pushed for the surveying of a route over which a transcontinental railway could be run. To this end, he asked for and got several teams of government surveyors who proceeded to begin charting passes and routes across the Washington Territory. As the best routes were eventually chosen, the survey of the specific route began in 1858. The Mullan road (named for John Mullan, the primary surveyor of the route and the man subsequently placed in charge of the road's construction), a permanent wagon road from the Mississippi River to the Puget Sound, was constructed in 1859-1860. In 1861 and 1862, an improved road was constructed and slightly rerouted. When the Northern Pacific Railroad was built approximately a quarter century later, it followed Mullan's route very closely.
