This map was made and brought from Russia by Guillermo S. Edelberg's grandfather, when he emigrated to Argentina. Guillermo found it in a box and he sent a copy to his cousin in the USA, Sarah Christiansen.

The map is hand-drawn and hand-written in old Russian. Although it was enlarged twice it is often difficult or impossible to read. Several translators contributed three different versions which are listed below. The numbers (# column) refer to the locations in the map.
