What form of ==Map of territorial claims==
The following off-site maps show the various claims of the original Thirteen Colonies:
[1],
[2],
[3], and
[4]. If this information could be included in a map of this province's claims, it would be great. (This request was originally made by
jengod, and I moved it here.) –

Pennsylvania, as those maps show, had no western claims. --

I'm not sure of the context. Someone with more knowledge should do it.

Never a province
The word "province" was never part of the official name of any of the thirteen British colonies that later formed the United States, yet nine of the titles of the thirteen articles on those colonies include "province". All nine articles should be moved and retitled.

Montgomery County didn't exist under provincial times in Pennsylvania. That county was created out of Philadelphia and Bucks Counties in 1784.

Colonial capital
As per the History section of the
Harrisburg article, that city did not even exist during the colonial era. What we now know as
Independence Hall in
Philadelphia was the Pennsylvania State House at the time of the American Revolution.
