A copy of this beautiful book of maps and illustrations
can be viewed at the
UNH website (where you may
browse the pages using the "Select a page" drop down
menu on the left).  According to the UNH website,
Hurd evidently published only two state atlases, the
first being the NH atlas (1892) and the second a similar
atlas for the state of Connecticut (1893).  The
distinctive feature of these atlases is that they show
either (1) the shapes of each parcel of land and the
name of the owner of

each parcel of land or
(2) the outline of each
building and the name of
each primary occupant.  
Hurd’s atlas shows the
latter. The Hurd atlas is
typical in that it also
shows additional
information such as local
scenes, sketches of
prominent buildings, and
tables of demographic
or other data.
The Society gratefully
welcomes to its
collection of artifacts
an exceptionally
generous gift from
George Howard of
Bartlett - a bound
1892 Hurd volume of

Town & City Atlas
of the State of New
Hampshire
.
The Bartlett Historical Society is
actively searching for historical
information on town sites &
events and family genealogies,
and we encourage anyone who
has either to donate or allow us
to copy it for our files.
