former indicated by a black triangular spot on the map. In the 
imprint, “ 59 .Fleet Street” is substituted for “ 1 Basing Lane.” 
From ‘ Pigot & Co s British Atlas, comprising the Counties of 
England, (upon which are laid down all railways complete and in 
progress).’ . . . London, no date, fol. This collection has 
40 county maps. The frontispiece map, of England and Wales, is 
dated at foot 1838, and the populations of 1821, and (as additional 
information) of 1831, are given. It seems probable, therefore, 
that there may have been an earlier issue of this atlas. 
* 1839 (c). Pigot, James, & Co. 14 x 8If. Scale, 
4f miles =■ 1 inch. Engraved by Bigot & Son. 
A reprint of the Hertfordshire map of 1838, unaltered, as found

Directory of London, For 1840, . . . To which are added 
Directories of the Counties of Bedford, Cambridge, Essex, Herts, 
. . .’ London, no date, large 8vo. 
1840. Duncan, James. 17-pe X 13£. Scale, 2f miles = 
1 inch. Engraved by Hoare & Beeves. 
A clearly-engraved map of the county in a ruled border, showing 
the hundreds, the rivers, main and cross roads, canals, towns, villages 
and hamlets, with the parks and woods, and a few hills. I he 
miles between towns are marked on the main roads, and indications 
are given of direction and distance where they leave the county. 
In the left-hand top corner the title is as follows :—“New Map of 
the County of Hertfordshire ; Divided into Hundreds Containing 
the District Divisions and other Local Arrangements effected by the 
Eeform Bill.” Below the title, a star-indicator of the points of 
the compass with long ornamental javelin-head, and to its left 
a “ Deference to the Hundreds.” In the left-hand bottom corner : 
“ County Members 3. Elections at □ ”. In the right-hand bottom 
corner a long “ Explanation”, and a “ Scale” of 10 miles. Below 
the map, in the centre : “ London Published by J. Duncan, Pater¬ 
noster Bow.” On the right, below the map: “Hoare & Beeves 
sc. 90, Hatton Gard n .” 
From ‘ A Complete County Atlas of England and Wales, 
containing Forty-four superior Maps, with all the Bailroads and 
Improvements, projected or completed. Divided into Hundreds, 
with the District Divisions, and other Local Arrangements effected 
by the Eeform Bill.’ London, no date, fol. On the cover of 
a copy in my collection is stamped: “ Bail Boad County Atlas 44 
Maps 1840,” but in this copy, although some of the maps show the 
railways, the map of Herts has none, though the map of England 
and Wales, which is the first in the series, shows the London and 
Birmingham and the London and Cambridge lines passing through 
the county. 
(Another impression of this map exists with the railways from 
Birmingham to London and from London to Cambridge inserted, 
but I cannot give it any exact date.)
