The General Services Administration, through the National Archives and Records Service, is responsible for administering the permanently valuable noncurrent records of the Federal Government. These archival holdings, now amounting to more than 1 million cubic feet, date from the days of the First and consist of the basic records of the legislative, judicial, and executive branches of our Government. The Presidential libraries of Herbert Hoover, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry S. Truman, Dwight D. Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, and Lyndon B. Johnson contain the papers of those Presidents and many of their associates in office. These resources document significant events in our Nation's history and are preserved ·because of their continuing practical use in the ordinary processes of government, for the protection of private rights, and for the research use of scholars and students.

To facilitate the use of these materials, our archivists prepare various kinds of finding aids that describe their nature and contents. The present work is one such publication. We believe that it will be of value to anyone who wishes to use the records it describes.

iii • Preface

Special lists are published by the National Archives and Records Service (NARS) as part of its records description program. The special list describes in detail the contents of certain important records series; that is, units of records of the same form or that deal with the same subject or activity or that are arranged serially. Its form and style are not fixed but vary according to the nature of the records to which it relates. Its distinguishing characteristic is that it goes beyond the general description contained in a record group registration statement, a preliminary inventory, or an inventory and describes records in terms of individual record .items.

In addition to lists and other finding aids that relate to particular record groups, NARS issues publications that give an overall picture of materials in its custody. A new, comprehensive Guide to the National Archives of the United States and a revised and expanded Guide to Materials on Latin America in the National Archives of the United States were published in 1974. Reference information papers analyze records in the National Archives of the United States (hereafter called the Archives) on such subjects as transportation, small business, and the Middle East. Records of the Civil War are described in Guide to Federal Archives Relating to the Civil War ( 1962), Guide to the Archives of the Government of the Confederate States of America (1968), and Civil War Maps in the National Archives (1964); those of World War I in Handbook of Federal World War Agencies and Their Records, 1917-1921 (1943); and those of World Warii in the two-volume guide Federal Records of World War II (1950-51). Genealogical records are described in Guide to Genealogical Reoords in the National Archives (1964). In the Archives are large quantities of audiovisual materials received -from all sources: Government, private, and commercial. The Guide to the Ford Film Collection in the National Archives ( 1970) describes one of the· largest private gift collections. The extensive body of maps and charts is described in the Guide to Cartographic Records in the National Archives ( 1971).

Many bodies of records of high research value have been microfilmed by NARS as a form of publication. Positive prints of these microfilm publications, many of which are described in the current Catalog ofNational Archives Microfilm Publications, are available for purchase. For other publications, see the most recent Select List of Publications of the National Archives and Records Service, General Information Leaflet No.3.

Introduction

A basic function of the National Archives and Records Service (NARS) is to maintain the permanently valuable noncurrent records of the Federal Government. By implication these records should be dated after 1787 , but in fact a significant amount of material from the pre-Federal period of American history is also among NARS holdings, including a number of early maps. Most of the relatively accurate maps and charts of areas in North America at the time of the American Revolution had been compiled by the British, largely in response to the needs of commercial navigation and the requirements of the long series of military campaigns conducted against the French during the 17th and 18th centuries in the struggle for mastery of the continent. Prominent among these documents were the coast charts of The English Pilot, a massive work compiled by various individuals and published in more than 30 editions during the period 1671-1784; the charts of The Atlantic Neptune, compiled under the direction of Joseph Frederick Wallet des Barres from 1763 to 1774 and published in 1779; Henry Pop.ple's Map of the in America, published in 1733; and the numerous American atlases assembled and published during I ' the late 18th century by Thomas Jefferys and his successor, William Faden, from the best available works by contemporary surveyors and cartographers of all nations. Significant mapping was also accomplished before and during the Revolution by several native Americans and a number of Englishmen and other Europeans who had settled permanently in the Colonies. Some notable examples are Capt. Cyprian Southack's The New Coasting Pilot . . . , 1719-33; the Map ofthe most Inhabited Part of Virginia containing the whole Province ofMaryland . .. by Joshua Fry and Peter Jefferson, first published in 1754 ; Lewis Evans' Map of the Middle British Colonies in North America, 1755; John Mitchell's A Map of the British and French in North America . . . , 1755 (which played an important role in the boundary negotiations between the United States and Great Britain following the Revolution) ; and the extensive military mapping executed during the war by General Washington's engineers under the direction of Thomas Hutchins, Robert Erskine, and Simeon DeWitt. Copies of many of the maps cited above, either in the original printing or in facsimile form, are among the records in the custody of the Cartographic Archives Division of NARS . Much of this material was accumulated in the 19th century by the Army's Corps ·of Engineers and the Corps of Topographical Engineers (a separate unit in existence from 1838 to 1863) while they were exploring and mapping new territories ; planning and surveying roads, canals, and other civil engineering works; and designing and constructing fortifications. These activities necessitated producing and accumulating cartographic aids in the form of maps, sketches, and construction drawings which are now filed with the Headquarters (or Civil Works) Map File and the Fortifications Map File in Record Group 77 . Other important early maps in this list were acquired by American diplomatic representatives during negotiations with Great Britain regarding . the United States­ Canadian boundary following the Revolution. For their own information and for use as evidence in support of U.S. claims, the American commissioners gathered copies of the best available maps covering areas in North America occupied by and the newly independent United States. Some of these maps have survived and are now among Records of Boundary and Claims Commissions and Arbitrations, Record Group 76. 2 INTRODUCTION

A third major group of maps described includes items filed among the papers in Records of the Continental and Confederation Congresses and the Constitutional Convention, Record Group 360. Particularly noteworthy are maps by Thomas Hutchins, Simeon DeWitt, and Bernard Romans. Also included in Papers of the Continental Congress (PCC), RG 360, are several undated plans of unidentified forts by unidentified compilers. These plans are not described in this list but are ftled in PCC item 60 {p. 421, 423, 425, 427, 429, and 430) and item 157, volume I (p. 328). The documents described in this special list include maps in the custody ofNARS that can reasonably be identified as having originated during or before 1790, as being copies or facsimiles of maps from that period, or as later maps that portray areas or events during the period. The list describes many historically significant items that can, in a real sense, be considered the foundation upon which the vast Federal mapping program was subsequently built. Every new map draws heavily upon the concepts, data, and techniques established by its cartographic forebears, and the training of the early Federal mapmakers was grounded firmly in the French and British traditions of surveying and cartography. The researcher in the history of American mapping in the colonial and Revolutionary periods will also fmd particularly rich resources available in the Geography and Map Division of the Library of Congress, the New-York Historical Society, the John Carter Brown Library at Brown University, the American Philosophical Society in , the William L. Clements Library at the University of Michigan, the Newberry Library in Chicago, and in various State and municipal depositories. In London, the Public Record Office and the map room of the British Museum also offer pertinent resources. This list is divided into three parts. Part I lists the maps in five special atlases. The Faden and George Washington Bicentennial atlases are bound; the Wheeler, U.S. Constitution Sesquicentennial, and George Washington (Army War College) atlases are composed of loose sheets. Part II lists maps covering the entire United States or encompassing two or more Colonies or States, in chronological order. Part III contains maps relating to specific Colonies or States, listed alphabetically by name of State and thereunder chronologically. For convenience in indicating the geographical coverage of some sheets, reference has been made to the District of Columbia and States of the United States as they now exist. Dates cited in the chronological sequences of parts II and III are, in most cases, dates the maps were compiled or published; a few items are listed under the date of an original survey or of an event depicted although the map, or an edition thereof, was published at a later date. Original titles, punctuation, and spelling have been retained, with three exceptions: superscript letters have not been used, the archaic letters "f' for "s" and "v" for "u" have not been used, and long titles have been shortened. Where several editions or variations of a map are listed consecutively, titles and other data for subsequent maps are the same as for the first map unless noted. Information enclosed in brackets has been supplied by the compiler. The approximate scale of each item described is indicated if it can be determined from the map; dimensions, stated in inches, are from edge to edge, with the vertical dimension first. Compilation and publication data are provided in most cases on the maps themselves and are given as shown on the map. Insets and annotations are noted. INTRODUCTION 3

Each map or series of maps is identified as part of either the Reference Collection in the Cartographic Archives Division or one of the following record groups :

Records of the Bureau of the Census, Record Group 29 Records of the Bureau of Land Management, Record Group 49 Records of the Bureau oflndian Affairs, Record Group 75 Records of Boundary and Claims Commissions and Arbitrations, Record Group 76 Records of the Office of the Chief of Engineers, Record Group 77 Records of the , Record Group 79 Records of the Office of the Quartermaster General, Record Group 92 Records of Minor Congressional Commissions, Record Group 148 Records of the War Department General and Special Staffs, Record Group 165 Records of the United States House of Representatives, Record Group 233 Records of the Supreme Court of the United States, Record Group 267 Records of the Continental and Confederation Congresses and the Constitutional Convention, Record Group 360

Individual ftle numbers are also indicated for most maps. Th~ Records of the Office of the Chief of Engineers, Record Group 77, include three principal types of ftle numbers: an alpha-numeric designation for items from the Headquarters Map File, drawer and sheet numbers for items from the Fortifications Map File, and the letters WDMC followed by a geographical ftle number for items from the War Department Map Collection. With the exception of a few items covered by copyright, photoreproductions of the maps described can be furnished for a fee. Requests for information should be addressed to the Cartographic Archives Division, National Archives (GSA), Washington, DC 20408. This special list has been revised to include entries for 94 maps and charts not described in the 1971 edition. Five of the original entries were deleted as falling outside the chronological criteria of the list. The compiler gratefully acknowledges the work of John Butler, George Chalou, Gary Morgan, and Howard Wehmann in locating the newly added maps and bringing them to his attention. . 1 PL.I.\" !1.
