*The number on the left of each listing shows the historical period of time
which the map represents. If the historical date and the date of publication are
not simultaneous, the latter will be found either in the title or the body of the
listing. The title used is that shown on the map. If the map had no specific title,
one was created and brackets [] were used as a distinguishing feature. The number
to the right of the title is the number by which the map is filed in the Archives
and is the one persons should request when they desire to examine a particular map.
