My map is from an old French atlas, about 1880 I think. South of Western Australia’s southern coast (between what is now the towns of Israelite Bay and Eucla) it shows an island.

It is marked ‘I Albion’ so Albion Island.

Very interested to see if anyone knows what it is referring to.

The users at r/maps said it could be a copyright trap - seems unlikely?

Nothing on google maps, so far as I can see.
