About The Mitchell County Map of Arizona & New Mexico 1876

"Entered according to Act of Congress in the year 1876 by S. Augustus Mitchell in the Office of the Librarian of Congress at Washington"

Tucson appears, as does Prescott and Wickenburg, but Phoenix does not.

This beautiful and originally hand-colored county map of States of Arizona and New Mexico [with grapevine border ] was from Mitchell’s New General Atlas published by Samuel Augustus Mitchell Jr. [a noted American Map publisher] in 1876 with a copyright entry date of 1876 on the map as well, the map is unusually clear and crispy. Showing the period routes of transportation, settlement, wagon Roads etc, each county is nicely delineated with different color.

Mitchell Jr. took over this part of his father’s business and started to publish this series of General Atlas in 1861 and updating and re-issuing the same atlas many times for the next 20 years or so.  It is thus interesting to collect them all to show the progression of geographic knowledge and changing of political divide of the region.
