Thank you for reminding of the newly-confirmed date of the Boyd map. After we puzzled over this date for so long, it’s good to have more evidence.

Great job – great site.
I think the letter from Carolina published in the William and Mary Quarterly in April 2007 verifies that the Boyds arrived in Charles Towne in 1686, meaning that the map Jean Boyd drew the day he arrived (at dawn on 28 March according to a letter his brother Jacques wrote)should be dated 1686, not 1691. The 1691 was written at the top of Jean Boyd’s letter in a different hand and is the reason that his letter was first dated 1691.
