This James Wyld (the Elder) chart offers one of the scarcest features on young U.S. maps-the inclusion of Franklinia-a state named for Benjamin Franklin. This ephemeral state was settled in 1794 but never recognized by Congress. It was later annexed by North Carolina but later became part of Tennessee.
