Did Tirol annex land (right flank of Val d'Avigna) from Switzerland between 1859 and 1869?
score:3
Accepted answer
This 1770s map appears to show the border running along the ridge line, as in your 1869 example, suggesting that if there was any change it was relatively short-lived. Given this, I wonder if the 1859 line may simply be a cartographical error...
