Delaware Maps (See Also Map Information for other States) - Although somewhat dated, another good collection of maps is the Atlas of the State of Delaware by Daniel G. Beers (1868; reprint, Georgetown, Del.: Sussex Prints, 1978). For quick reference, maps of Delaware hundreds are on the inside back cover of the Delaware Genealogical Society Journal and in Hancock's The Reconstructed Delaware State Census of 1782. One of the best collections of Delaware maps is at the Delaware State Archives.
