Click here for link.
This is an old British chart from 1776 from the Library of Congress. It shows the coastline around Buzzard's Bay, including the present areas of Fairhaven, Acushnet, New Bedford, Dartmouth, Westport, and the Elizabeth Islands. Although published April 25, 1776, it was probably created in 1775, which is also before the attack on Dartmouth by the British in 1778.
