Berthier Map

 

This map of Trenton, produced in 1781 by Louis-Alexandre Berthier for the French army en route from Newport, Rhode Island to Yorktown, Virginia, shows the built-up area of the town (shaded in red) on the north side of Assunpink Creek. Broad, Warren, State and Front Streets are recognizable in roughly the same configuration as today. The French army is shown encamped to the south of town along modern South Broad and Ferry Streets.
