A List of the Maps


The maps are numbered in chronological sequence of first publication. The date given is that which is known or surmised. The chosen order of preference throughout the catalogue is surveyor, draughtsman, engraver, author, publisher. Names joined by a slash indicate that both/all were connected with the original issue. A slash is also used to identify separate works by the same draughtsman/engraver. Where maps are commonly associated with another mapmaker or printer the alternative name is added in brackets. Works not in italics were issued without title page. 80A and 95A were found after the first edition was published. 80B was originally 109 but has been found in an earlier state. 114 was found to have been published originally in 1839 and has been transferred to The Victorian Maps of Devon.
