William
Gray's Map of the Sullivan Expedition |

This
map identified both Harpersfield (Harper's) and it's relationship
to the forts in the Schoharie Valley, but also identified the location
of the Bartholomew's on the Charlotte. It becomes obvious that
the path north from Harpersfield to Cherry Valley goes right past
the Bartholomew cabin. The Bartholomew's had moved up from New
Jersey in 1770. It is easy to see how Alexander Harper met Elizabeth
Bartholomew during his travels from Cherry Valley to Harpersfield.
