Places and reading notes

    8 distinct dated years. Stacked marks retain different posts, rates or accounts without assigning an order within that year. Grey marks have no service place.

    How to read this map

    Connections join located entries in chronological stages; other recorded places stay in the text. Dashed connections pass intervening stages without a map position. They do not document a travel route or continuous service.

    Entries within the same AH year are not ordered. Stages with more than one located locality remain unconnected; each source place stays visible.

    6 stops kept as text without a verified locality point. No provincial capital is substituted.
