County Atlases

Presented below is a catalogue of English County Atlases 1579-1789. These have been taken from the bibliographies of British Atlases begun by R.A.Skelton (whose book covered 1579-1703) and continued in three volumes by Donald Hodson, covering repectively 1704-42, 1743-63 and 1764-89. Their reference numbers appear in green on the left of each entry. Skelton arranged his catalogue in chronological order of publication, whereas Hodson grouped familes of atlases together but began his numbering where Skelton's ended. In my scheme I've used Hodson's sequence but have assigned my own numbers to the atlas groups. At the moment the list isn't complete.
