This exceptionally detailed map of Maysville from 1886 is a Sanborn Fire Map, originally created to assist insurance companies to assess risk for underwriting fire insurance, hence “fire maps.” We've downloaded this single page from the Library of Congress' site for Sanborns. This map is one of nine in the set from 1886. They also have a set from 1890 (13 maps) and a set from 1895 (15 maps). |
