Scope and Content Note

This series consists of two bound volumes that form an index to maps filed with the Department of Public Works. Entries in each volume are arranged alphabetically (A-Z) and therein the maps are entered in essentialy numerical order (according to assigned numbers). Exactly when the index was compiled is unclear, but it would appear to be after 1923, since the cover of the volumes are stamped "Department of Public Works."

Maps indexed in volume one date between 1846-1900, with the bulk dating from 1890-1900. Maps indexed in volume two date between 1901 and 1912.
