II. G. FORDHAM-HERTFORDSHIRE MAPS. 
and Map-seller, No. 181, near Norfolk Street, Strand. Published 
as the Act directs JanF. 1st. 1793.” large 4to. The maps in this 
series are all of the same date, except that of Dorset, which is 
dated (in error) 1795. They are very exactly copied from the 
originals as to their general style and appearance, hut differ 
slightly in details throughout, and the writing itself of names on 
the map is distinguishable from that on the original plates. They 
retain the meridian of St. Paul’s. 
(Reprinted in an atlas with the same title about 1818, and 
possibly at other dates. The plate was afterwards in the possession 
of G. P. Cruchley, by whom it was used,' with the railways 
inserted, in his ‘ County Atlas,’ of which copies exist in the British 
Museum of 1863, 1868 (?), 1872 (?), and 1875. In 1876 it was 
sold to Messrs. Gall & Inglis, of Edinburgh, by whom, however, it 
has not been used—Cruchley’s stock of county maps of this size, 
which they also purchased, being not yet (1905) exhausted.)
