    INVENTORY OF CANAL COMMISSIONERS I HAPS in the PENNSYLVANIA STATE ARCHIVES RG 17 Records of the Land Office D. Records of the Board of Canal Commissioners Map Books, lSlO-lSSl, n.d. Compiled by Martha L. Simonetti, Associate Archivist Division of Archives and Manuscripts BUREAU OF ARCHIVES AND HISTORY PENNSYLVANIA HISTORICAL AND MUSEUM COMMISSION HARRISBURG, 1965 PREfACE This detailed listing of the maps and plans in the Map Books from the Records of the Board of Canal Commissioners is intended as a key to one of the most interesting and attractive groupings of cartographic and illustrative materials in the State Archives. This priceless collection was transferred from the Bureau of Land Records, Department of Internal Affairs, to the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission in January, 1968, to become part of the magnificent series of canal records in the Division of Archives and Manuscripts. After the Board of Canal Commissioners ceased to function, its records were placed in the State Land Office (Bureau of Land Records), largely because of their relation to land titles. With the growth of interest in canal history in the 1950's, the Department of Internal Affairs had Dr. Hubertis M. Cummings prepare a descriptive guide to these materials, which was published in 1959 as Pennsylvania Board of ganal Commissioners' Records with Allied Records of Canal Companies Chartered £y the Commonwealth: Descriptive Index. The response to this guide made it even more obvious that the primary value of these records was historical. In 1961, the General Assembly amended the Administrative Code to remove the requirement that the canal records be kept in the Land Office, and the Department of Internal Affairs began the process of transferring them to the State Archives.
