H. G. FOEDHAM—HEETFOEDSHIEE MAPS. 
main roads, towns, villages, hamlets, parks, woods, houses, churches 
and chapels, wind- and water-mills, Roman stations, sites of battles, 
etc., many of the details being indicated by signs. It has a plain, 
double-line margin, but no title. In the left-hand top corner, 
in a rectangular panel, is an explanation of some of the signs 
used, and in the right-hand bottom corner, a “Scale of 5 Miles,” 
and “ J. Clark sculp ” on the margin. 
From ‘ The History of Hertfordshire; describing the County, 
and its Antient Monuments, particularly the Roman . . . .’ 
London, 1728, folio. The Preface is dated at Bishop’s Stortford, 
May 1, 1728. 
* 1731. Owen, John. 4-B X 4£. Scale, 10 miles = 1 inch. 
Engraved by Emanuel Bowen. 
Another reprint of the map of Herts of 1720. 
From an edition of the ‘ Britannia Depict a, or Ogilby Improv’d,’ 
which was issued in the above year. I have not seen a copy of 
this edition. It is described as the fourth in ‘ British Topography,’ 
vol. i, at p. 105, and a copy of this date is noted in the Catalogue 
of the Gough Library at p. 10. 
* 1733. Seller, John (?). 
There appears, probably, to have been a reprint of one of Seller’s 
large maps of Herts of 1676, or, possibly, of Saxton’s map as 
altered by Lea, but with Seller’s name upon it, in an Atlas 
published by Thomas and John Bowles in 1733. I have not, how¬ 
ever, seen either the map or the Atlas. In the British Museum 
Library are maps of Buckinghamshire, Kent, and Surrey, which 
all appear to have been printed from Saxton’s plates, but altered 
to such an extent that the original design has almost disappeared. 
They all bear, “ By John Seller,” “ Corrected and many additions 
by P. Lea,” and “ Printed and Sold by Thomas Bowles Print 
and Map Seller next the Chapter House in St. Paul’s Church 
Yard, and John Bowles, Print and Map Seller at the Black Horse 
in Cornhill, London, 1733.” 
These three individual maps are not, of course, evidence of the 
publication of a complete Atlas, or of the Herts map in such an 
Atlas being that of Seller or Saxton, but the above date is noted 
as being that at which a large map of Herts was, in all probability, 
issued. 
* 1736. Owen, John. 4J£ X 4£. Scale, 10 miles = 1 inch. 
Engraved by Emanuel Bowen. 
A further reprint of Bowen’s map described under date 1720. 
From another impression of the ‘ Britannia Depict a, 1 also described 
as the fourth, and issued by Thomas Bowles, London, 1736, 8vo. 
I have a copy in my collection. 
* 1736 (?). Speed, John. 20 x 15. Scale, 2^ miles = 
1 inch. Engraved by Jodocus Hondius. 
It is supposed that there was a reprint of Speed’s maps of this 
date, but I can find no reliable evidence that it ever existed.
