Note
This map should be compared to the 1855 edition to see how much the cemetery has grown in the intervening 46 years. An index of features and graves of prominent people is added. An ms red "x" marks, we presume, the grave location of someone known to the map's original owner. Folded into blue cloth covers 17x12 with "Green-Wood" and illustration of building in gilt. Oriented with north toward lower left.
