It is the 1760 Beth Mitchell Map of Fairfax County in 1760, then. The map is still out of print but the booklet that goes with it may still be available. If not you can request an Interlibrary loan to get it.

Yes, I believe those were the maps I bought. One, I remember - I have
them in storage or I would give you the numbers - listed how many
slaves were owned on each property. Perhaps it was Suzanne who was so
