About this piece

The foreign-born population of the United States in 1870, an original color lithograph (Plate XXV) from the Statistical Atlas of the United States based on the results of the ninth census 1870, compiled by Francis A. Walker and published in 1874. The title reads "Map showing in five degrees of density the distribution of the foreign population within the territory of the United States east of the 100th meridian", compiled from the returns of population at the ninth census.

The map covers the eastern United States, with the Great Lakes, Florida, the Gulf of Mexico, Cuba and the Bahamas outlined and the Indian Territory at the left. Counties are tinted in purple, graded by a scale at the right, and small clusters of darker tint mark the cities and the settled states of the Northeast and the upper Midwest, with Wisconsin and Minnesota prominent. The South is left pale. An explanation is printed beneath the title.

The plate is one of the series on the foreign-born population drawn from the ninth census.
