Product Description
Maryland presents cartographers with a formidable test of their skills: unusualnatural boundaries, border disputes, and in 1790 the gift of sixty-seven square miles for thecreation of the District of Columbia have given the state a distinctively irregular configuration.Since the early seventeenth century, generations of mapmakers have met this challenge withartistic imagination and a variety of cartographical techniques.

In The Maryland State Archives Atlas of Historical Maps of Maryland, 1608–1908, Edward C. Papenfuse and Joseph M. Coale III bring together in one volume the results of theseremarkable efforts, from Captain John Smith's 1608 detailed sketch of the region to the mapresulting from the Supreme Court's determination of the state's western border in 1908. Utilizingthe latest digital imaging and printing technology, the Atlas contains stunning, full-colorreproductions of more than 250 of the most significant historical maps from stateand federalarchives. This handsome and informative collection--a thoroughly updated and greatly expandedversion of the authors' landmark book, The Hammond-Harwood House Atlas of HistoricalMaps of Maryland (1982)--provides an in-depth history of mapmaking in Maryland andcharts the state's early settlement patterns. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars I found Skeafe
I found Skeafe in County Cork in the 17th Century! Plus this book is hardbound which really helps because I can really tear through the paperbacks. It is the first place I look.

5-0 out of 5 stars A "Master" book
This is a great book for genealogical researchers- for beginners or seasoned researchers, this book will give you the places to either start your search, or give you ideas on places you have not thought of.

3-0 out of 5 stars Not the best for geographic place names
We were looking for a book that explained the origin of Irish place names, but this wasn't it.This is a fine book for genealogical researchers, as it associates surnames with places.If you're looking for the Irish Gaelic origins of place names, try to find a copy of "Dictionary of Irish Place Names" by Adrian Room.We were glad to score the last copy from a distributor.

I'm sure Mr. O'Laughlin is a great researcher in his field, but I'm disappointed that we were a bit misled by this book's title and didn't find what we were looking for. I'm sure we'll put the book to good use eventually, though! ... Read more

Product Description
1897, the year in which these maps first appeared in The Royal English Atlas, was one of great celebration for it marked the Diamond Jubilee of Britain's longest reigning monarch Queen Victoria. But there was much more to celebrate than her continuing occupancy of the throne as the previous sixty years had seen the greatest ever period of industrial development. The rapidly expanding industrial towns and cities were now the homes of workers who once laboured on the land but were now in the factories and mines creating and processing the needs of the mother country and the Empire. To record these changes the Victorians had become great map makers and the Ordnance Survey had already been publishing maps for a century. This series, created from Ordnance Survey maps, were coloured and published in book form. They are now available in sheets for the first time. The construction of the railway network, commenced a mere 72 years before, was now virtually complete with over 20,000 miles in use. They are all marked, as are their 'predecessors' the canals.But, despite all the changes brought about by the Industrial Revolution, the great conurbations we know today were still surprisingly small in 1897. The countryside had changed little for centuries. There were still scores of aristocratic homes surrounded by park land where now the urban sprawl, new towns and industrial estates may be found. Just as interesting is what is not shown. Notice how small the towns and scattered villages are, indeed there is a village just to the west of London on sheet 9 which shows the three or four houses that made up the village of Heathrow. There are no by-passes and all the major trunk roads pass along the high streets of country towns. Motorways had, of course, not even been dreamt about but interestingly the route of a proposed channel tunnel is marked. These maps provide a fascinating insight into the past and will be a delight for local historians, walkers, genealogists and indeed anyone curious to see how their area used to be. Each map has a booklet describing England and Wales in 1897. ... Read more

Product Description
Look at a map and you’ll get a real understanding of migration routes and patterns. Clearly, the easiest routes were along coasts or down rivers.Pull out a present-day atlas, and try to imagine it without roads.You’ll quickly see how your ancestors traveled, and why they ended up in certain locales.If you ever “lose” a generation, you can use maps to help speculate on a possible new home.

Old maps show old place names.Although your ancestor may have lived in the same location for generations, the name of the place and the county in which it was located may have changed numerous times.It’s possible that your search for the family who didn’t move, may lead you to more county courthouses than tracing the ones who migrated with every generation.

If you just want an idea of the geography of your ancestor’s surroundings, a period map will probably help more than a visit.Thanks to modern engineering and Mother Nature, the topography of a place may have changed so much that your ancestor wouldn’t recognize his favorite fishing hole.Period maps will depict the landscape as it was, including the rivers your family forded and the forests they helped clear

5-0 out of 5 stars Fersken's Review of Phillimore's Atlas and Index of Parish Registers
This is a great book with a detailed look at all the parishes of London.Each county in England is carefully detailed with the years of available church records and maps of exquisite detail.Service in getting the product was very good taking less than two weeks.All in all, an excellent book for the cost.

5-0 out of 5 stars Genealogy assist.
I have found this an amazing tool for tracing my ancestors.I found theCounty Parish maps pre-1832 a great help.This is a definate must for Genealogy buffs.

5-0 out of 5 stars Must have for United Kingdom genealogical research!
This book is well worth the price.I started using an older version at a local library, but really needed something for home use.So I ordered the 2003 version and am completely delighted.The newer version added an overall map of the UK at the beginning and has added Scotland.Each map is "pre-1832 parishes and a topographical map from James Bell's A New and Comprehensive Gazetteer of England and Wales of 1834".And for someone doing a lot of work in Yorkshire, they have it divided into the 3 regions, East Riding, West Riding and North Riding.The only thing I would like the next version to include is an index of every little town and village and what parish it is in.Probably would double the price and thickness of the book, but what a treasure that would be.

5-0 out of 5 stars An outstanding reference book of UK genealogical research
Contrary to the availablity information provided here, this book is not out of print.

It is an absolute MUST HAVE if you're doing UK genealogical research! It provides maps to the parish boundaries for each of the counties of England,Wales and now Scotland. Each county map showing parish boundaries for England and Wales is placed next to a historical map for that same county.This provides an excellent opportunity to locate parishes in a historical context.

The real gem of this book is the information on the location of parish records.For each parish, the extant dates of the records available for that parish are given as well as the location of where those records may be consulted.

An outstanding reference work for UK genealogy.

5-0 out of 5 stars A vital reference
