Title A name given to the resource North Carolina Paper Currency Subject The topic of the resource Money--North Carolina--Specimens Paper money--North Carolina--Specimens Description An account of the resource During the Colonial Period, the scarcity of specie (coin) in North Carolina constituted a major problem. Settlers arrived with little hard currency and the limited trade of the province brought in inadequate amounts of coin. Since little or no gold, silver or copper (the raw materials for coins) was mined in the colony, the chief form of exchange for most of the Colonial Period was the barter of commodities—tobacco, corn, wheat, tallow, skins, pitch, whale oil, pork and beef, etc Paper currency was treated with some suspicion. During the Colonial Period, it was frequently issued to finance or pay off debts incurred by military expeditions. The 1748 issue, for example, paid for constructing forts at Cape Fear and Ocracoke for protection of the coastal area from Spanish attacks. Unlike specie, paper currency was subject to counterfeiting, depreciation of face value and inflation. It wasn’t easy to convince Americans to accept the early paper currency. To encourage them, famous and respected men were recruited to sign the front of the bills by hand. The signatures on the reverse often signified a guarantee of payment. The individual most closely associated with North Carolina currency was New Bern printer James Davis (1721-1785). Born and trained in Virginia, Davis came to North Carolina in 1749 to fill the post of public printer, an office created that year by the Assembly to print a revisal of the colony’s laws. Davis opened a print shop in New Bern, first on Pollock Street and later on Broad Street. His first job was printing currency for the province—probably the Bills of Credit authorized by the Assembly on April 4th, 1748. In his capacity as public printer for North Carolina, Davis printed the succeeding issues of currency (1754, 1757/58, ______1774). While much of his work was of an official nature, Davis is credited with publishing the first North Carolina imprint. During his nearly thirty-three years as public printer, he printed at least one hundred titles. He also published a variety of other material including North Carolina’s first newspaper, The North Carolina Gazette. In 1782 he relinquished his position as public printer to his son Thomas. -- This project is supported with federal LSTA funds made possible through a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, administered by the State Library of North Carolina, a division of the Department of Cultural Resources through the North Carolina ECHO, 'Exploring Cultural Heritage Online' Digitization Grant Program.

Building: Tryon Palace £125,000 in Bills of Credit were authorized by the September 21, 1775 Resolution. The $5 bill of credit was issued in a series of 4,000. The vignette in the corner shows the Palace, constructed between 1767 and 1770 as government house and residence for Governor William Tryon. It is the only know eighteenth-century image of the building besides John Hawks’ architectural drawings. The engraving reveals that the Palace originally had large urns at the corners of the parapet, in the manner of mid-eighteenth-century British country houses, while the flanking offices were plain.

His first job was printing currency for the province—probably the Bills of Credit authorized by the Assembly on April 4th, 1748. In his capacity as public printer for North Carolina, Davis printed the succeeding issues of currency (1754, 1757/58, ______1774). While much of his work was of an official nature, Davis is credited with publishing the first North Carolina imprint. During his nearly thirty-three years as public printer, he printed at least one hundred titles. He also published a variety of other material including North Carolina’s first newspaper, The North Carolina Gazette. In 1782 he relinquished his position as public printer to his son Thomas. -- This project is supported with federal LSTA funds made possible through a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, administered by the State Library of North Carolina, a division of the Department of Cultural Resources through the North Carolina ECHO, 'Exploring Cultural Heritage Online' Digitization Grant Program.

Title A name given to the resource North Carolina Paper Currency Subject The topic of the resource Money--North Carolina--Specimens Paper money--North Carolina--Specimens Description An account of the resource During the Colonial Period, the scarcity of specie (coin) in North Carolina constituted a major problem. Settlers arrived with little hard currency and the limited trade of the province brought in inadequate amounts of coin. Since little or no gold, silver or copper (the raw materials for coins) was mined in the colony, the chief form of exchange for most of the Colonial Period was the barter of commodities—tobacco, corn, wheat, tallow, skins, pitch, whale oil, pork and beef, etc Paper currency was treated with some suspicion. During the Colonial Period, it was frequently issued to finance or pay off debts incurred by military expeditions. The 1748 issue, for example, paid for constructing forts at Cape Fear and Ocracoke for protection of the coastal area from Spanish attacks. Unlike specie, paper currency was subject to counterfeiting, depreciation of face value and inflation. It wasn’t easy to convince Americans to accept the early paper currency. To encourage them, famous and respected men were recruited to sign the front of the bills by hand. The signatures on the reverse often signified a guarantee of payment. The individual most closely associated with North Carolina currency was New Bern printer James Davis (1721-1785). Born and trained in Virginia, Davis came to North Carolina in 1749 to fill the post of public printer, an office created that year by the Assembly to print a revisal of the colony’s laws. Davis opened a print shop in New Bern, first on Pollock Street and later on Broad Street.

Title A name given to the resource Tryon Palace Maps, Plans, and Surveys Subject The topic of the resource North Carolina--Maps Description An account of the resource From the first sightings of land in the West Indies through the end of the eighteenth century, there was a constant demand for maps of the newfound lands on the western Atlantic. Until the early decades of the nineteenth century, most maps were the products of English and Continental (Dutch, German and French) cartographers and engravers, who often based their maps on explorer’s reports and mariner’s charts. Beyond their use for navigation, commerce and military affairs, maps had other functions. They recorded the progress of the European settlement of North America. They documented the borders between the colonies. And they provided a relatively inexpensive means of household decoration. Newspaper advertisements for the colonial period indicate that maps were available in single sheets or bound in atlases or occasionally in magazines. Before the eighteenth century, private ownership of maps and charts implied a learned and accomplished status that was usually limited to men of wealth and power involved in trade, government or education. After 1700, there was greater economic diversity in map ownership. Maps can be found in the inventories and personal papers of colonial American mariners, millwrights, tradesmen, merchants, plantation owners, clergy, government officials, military officers and tradesmen. The map collection at Tryon Palace Historic Sites & Gardens focuses on printed maps of the new world, with a special emphasis on maps depicting the Carolinas from the period of discovery to the Revolutionary War. This group includes examples of the work of some of the most important British and Continental cartographers and engravers of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. There are maps by William Janszoon Blaeu and Nicolas Sanson of Amsterdam, Jean Baptiste Homann of Nuremberg, and John Senex, Herman Moll, J. or T. Hinton, Thomas Jefferys, John Collet, Thomas Kitchin and Henry Mouzon of London. A second, smaller group of maps records changes in county boundaries in the State of North Carolina from the late eighteenth century to the Civil War. The collection also contains a number of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century surveys and topographical maps of New Bern and Craven County. Catalog entries include both a short title reference and the full title including any dedication. Size is given in inches for paper, plate and image (measured from the outer edge of the neat line); measurements are always taken along the left edge and bottom of the print. Insets are treated in the same manner as the primary image. Significant features are noted in the description. Biographical information on the cartographer or engraver is included when possible.

Hooper. No. 25 Ludgate Hill, London. [below neat line, center] | Watermark: “J Whatman.” The Collet map includes all of North Carolina from the coast westward to “Table [Rock] Mountain, near the present site of Morganton. It illustrates the western movement of population to and across the Piedmont during the middle of the eighteenth century. One of the finest provincial maps, it surpasses any previous map of the region in scope and accuracy. Henry Mouzon used it as the model for the northern half of his map of North and South Carolina (TP.1956.005.001). It is the basis for many subsequent maps of North Carolina from its appearance in 1770 until the Price-Strother map of 1808. Born in Switzerland, John Abraham Collet (fl. 1756-1789) came to America in 1767 under the auspices of the British crown to serve as governor of Fort Johnston near Wilmington, North Carolina. In 1768 he served as aid-de-camp to Governor William Tryon in his Hillsborough expedition against the Regulators. Collet’s map is unusual in including a great deal of topographical detail. Although he did little of the surveying himself, Collet had the advantage of access to earlier surveys taken by William Churton under the aegis of the royal governors especially Royal Governor William Tryon. The remarkable asymmetrical cartouche in the lower right corner contains a dedication to George III. Surmounted by the Hanoverian crest, it contains symbols of the new world including an Indian, an alligator and a wildcat. Relatively few copies of this map have survived. In 1959 only a dozen copies were known. Several important sites are highlighted on the map including New Bern, the site of the new capitol, and the “Gov. H[ouse] Bellefont” at Brunswick-town.

Title A name given to the resource Tryon Palace Maps, Plans, and Surveys Subject The topic of the resource North Carolina--Maps Description An account of the resource From the first sightings of land in the West Indies through the end of the eighteenth century, there was a constant demand for maps of the newfound lands on the western Atlantic. Until the early decades of the nineteenth century, most maps were the products of English and Continental (Dutch, German and French) cartographers and engravers, who often based their maps on explorer’s reports and mariner’s charts. Beyond their use for navigation, commerce and military affairs, maps had other functions. They recorded the progress of the European settlement of North America. They documented the borders between the colonies. And they provided a relatively inexpensive means of household decoration. Newspaper advertisements for the colonial period indicate that maps were available in single sheets or bound in atlases or occasionally in magazines. Before the eighteenth century, private ownership of maps and charts implied a learned and accomplished status that was usually limited to men of wealth and power involved in trade, government or education. After 1700, there was greater economic diversity in map ownership. Maps can be found in the inventories and personal papers of colonial American mariners, millwrights, tradesmen, merchants, plantation owners, clergy, government officials, military officers and tradesmen. The map collection at Tryon Palace Historic Sites & Gardens focuses on printed maps of the new world, with a special emphasis on maps depicting the Carolinas from the period of discovery to the Revolutionary War. This group includes examples of the work of some of the most important British and Continental cartographers and engravers of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. There are maps by William Janszoon Blaeu and Nicolas Sanson of Amsterdam, Jean Baptiste Homann of Nuremberg, and John Senex, Herman Moll, J. or T.

It was the first map of the Carolinas issued during the Revolutionary War period and was used by British, French and American forces. It remained the chief of map for the region during the forty or fifty years following its publication. Thomas Jefferys included the Mouzon map in The American Atlas (London, 1775). George L. Le Rouge published a French edition of the Mouzon map in Atlas Amèriquain Sepentrionale (Paris, 1777). That version is titled in French and English and includes an inset of the English attack on Fort Sullivan (June 28, 1776). A third version of the map was issued in 1794 by Laurie and Whittle, successors to Sayer and Bennett, using the original plates.

The map was included in Le Théâtre du Monde, ou Novvel Atlas (Amsterdami, 1638), Vol. II (1640) by Willem Janszoon Blaeu and his son Joan Willem Blaeu. The map is based on the large 1606 Mercator-Hondia map of the same area. It was copied by Jan Jansson for his Nieuwen Atlas of 1641 and appeared in several editions of Jansson’s atlases. There is no mention of Carolina, which was not named until 1663. Amsterdam-born Willem Janszoon Blaeu (1571 – c. 1646) was in business by about 1596 as an instrument maker and globe manufacturer. He later became an engraver and printer. Working with his sons Joan Willem (1596 – 1673) and Cornelius (died 1642), Blaeu produced some of the finest maps of the period. This can be seen in the quality of the engraving, the sense of design, and the beautiful cartouches. For his service to navigation, in 1633 Willem Blaeu was appointed mapmaker to the Dutch Republic.

Title A name given to the resource Tryon Palace Maps, Plans, and Surveys Subject The topic of the resource North Carolina--Maps Description An account of the resource From the first sightings of land in the West Indies through the end of the eighteenth century, there was a constant demand for maps of the newfound lands on the western Atlantic. Until the early decades of the nineteenth century, most maps were the products of English and Continental (Dutch, German and French) cartographers and engravers, who often based their maps on explorer’s reports and mariner’s charts. Beyond their use for navigation, commerce and military affairs, maps had other functions. They recorded the progress of the European settlement of North America. They documented the borders between the colonies. And they provided a relatively inexpensive means of household decoration. Newspaper advertisements for the colonial period indicate that maps were available in single sheets or bound in atlases or occasionally in magazines. Before the eighteenth century, private ownership of maps and charts implied a learned and accomplished status that was usually limited to men of wealth and power involved in trade, government or education. After 1700, there was greater economic diversity in map ownership. Maps can be found in the inventories and personal papers of colonial American mariners, millwrights, tradesmen, merchants, plantation owners, clergy, government officials, military officers and tradesmen. The map collection at Tryon Palace Historic Sites & Gardens focuses on printed maps of the new world, with a special emphasis on maps depicting the Carolinas from the period of discovery to the Revolutionary War. This group includes examples of the work of some of the most important British and Continental cartographers and engravers of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. There are maps by William Janszoon Blaeu and Nicolas Sanson of Amsterdam, Jean Baptiste Homann of Nuremberg, and John Senex, Herman Moll, J. or T. Hinton, Thomas Jefferys, John Collet, Thomas Kitchin and Henry Mouzon of London. A second, smaller group of maps records changes in county boundaries in the State of North Carolina from the late eighteenth century to the Civil War. The collection also contains a number of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century surveys and topographical maps of New Bern and Craven County. Catalog entries include both a short title reference and the full title including any dedication. Size is given in inches for paper, plate and image (measured from the outer edge of the neat line); measurements are always taken along the left edge and bottom of the print. Insets are treated in the same manner as the primary image. Significant features are noted in the description. Biographical information on the cartographer or engraver is included when possible.
