Extremely Rare 19th Century Chart of Nantucket. circa 1850, with details of Nantucket Island, Eastern Martha’s Vineyard, Monomoy Island and surrounding shoals. This is a unique, unpublished chart, and is almost certainly a one-off creation. The fact that Lt. Davis’ Shoals (the New South Shoals) are included to the Southeast of Nantucket indicates that the chart was drawn after 1840.
