    1. [NJMORRIS] More on East and West Jersey
    2. Here's another puzzling question. The Thornton map, mentioned in my earlier e-mail, clearly shows the boundary line trending between 10 and 15 degrees to the west of true north. However, last weekend I saw another antique map (an original!) that clearly showed the boundary line as due north. Does anyone have any better information?
