Kashnor collection of early American maps
Manuscripts
The 85 manuscripts, known as the Kashnor maps, are named after the proprietor of the Museum Book Store, from which they were purchased. They include original maps and copies of cartographic renderings dating from the late 17th to the mid-19th centuries. The maps focus primarily on sites and land involved in the French and Indian War in New York and Canada (67 maps), but there are also maps related to the American Revolution (3 maps), and ones of Central America (4 maps), and other regions (10 maps). The collection also contains a drawing of a dart or fire-arrow retrieved near Fort William Henry after Montcalm's attack in 1757. Some of the maps in the collection are hand drawn copies of earlier maps. These include ones executed during the French and Indian War. There are also four maps charting the voyages of the H.M.S. Asia in 1848-1851 that were copies made in 1856. Consequently, the creation dates of the Kashnor maps are from 1754-1856.
