Does anybody know where Polypotamia and Pelisipia were in the 1783 to 1803 time frame? Check out this great territorial map of the United States.

On the subject of maps - also keep in mind that Google Earth has a number of historical street maps which can be laid over a city or region. For example, if you happen to be looking at South Philly there are 3 or 4 different map overlays - including a 1942 land use map.
