fl. G. FORDIIAM—HERTFORDSHIRE MARS. 
(Reprinted 1809, 1811, 1818, and 1828, and perhaps at other 
intermediate dates. The plates were used later by G. E. Cruchley 
from about 1832 up to 1875; in 1876 they were purchased by 
Messrs'. Gall & Ing’lis, of Edinburgh, and were printed from by 
them until the end of the nineteenth century, and are still (1905) 
in use; see under the dates 1832, 1855, 1875, 1883, and 1885, post.) 
1801. Smith, Charles. 20-A- X 17£. Scale, 2 miles = 
hf inch. Engraved by Jones & Smith, Fentonville. 
A very well-engraved and clear map of the county, giving special 
prominence to the principal roads. It shows the hundreds, roads, 
rivers, canals, towns, villages, hamlets, sites of churches, houses, 
parks, woods, hills, and commons, the details not being extended 
beyond the county boundaries. The distances in miles between 
towns are marked on the main roads, The margin of the map is 
cut by the boundary of the county both on the east side (near 
Bishop’s Stortford) and on the west (near Tring). The degrees and 
minutes of latitude and longitude are marked in the margin, the 
map being drawn on the meridian of Greenwich Observatory, as is 
stated in the margin at foot. In the left-hand top corner: “ A Hew 
Map of the County of Hertford Divided into Hundreds. London 
Printed for C. Smith, Ho. 172, Strand. January 6th 1801,” and 
below, a small star-indicator of the points of the compass with, 
again below, “Jones & Smith, sculp. Pentonville.” In the bottom 
corner, on the same side of the map, is a “ Reference to the 
Hundreds,” and, in the right-hand bottom corner, an “Explanation.” 
At the bottom of the map, in the centre, is a scale of seven miles. 
This map is one of a series of county maps all of the same date, 
which appear not to have been collected into an atlas until 1804. 
(Reprinted in 1808 (c), 1818 (c), 1821, 1827 (c), 1843 (c), and 
1846 (c), with trifling alterations, and with variations in the 
colouring. These are all the dates I can identify, but there may 
have been intermediate issues, The only editions of the atlas 
I have been able to find are those of 1804, 1808, and 1821.) 
1803. Luffman, John. A circular map with a wide 
border; diameter of map 1 §-, and with border 2-Re. Scale, about 
24 miles = 1 inch. It is printed in the upper half of a 12mo 
page, with descriptive letterpress below, and gives the county 
boundary, and the boundaries of the adjoining counties up to the 
border of the map, and the roads and principal towns and villages. 
Within the map is a small, upright cross-indicator of the north. 
In the border, at the top : “ Hertfordshire ” ; on the left: “ Sends 
6 Members to Parl mt ” ; on the right: “Hertford County Town 
21 miles from London”; and, at bottom, a “Scale of 10 miles.” 
The map is numbered “ 16 ” at the top of the page, and has below 
it, outside and following the curve of the border: “ Sold by 
J. Luffman 28 Little Bell Alley Coleman Str 1 London.” There 
is no text on the back.
