New Hampshire Maps (See Also Map Information for other States) - New Hampshire is a state with excellent map sources, making it possible to follow migration trails with the use of political divisions and geographic features. David A. Cobb, New Hampshire Maps to 1900: An Annotated Checklist (Concord, N.H.: New Hampshire Historical Society, 1981), helps to identify and locate many maps for research purposes.
An excellent, currently published atlas for the entire state is The New Hampshire Atlas and Gazetteer (Freeport, Maine: DeLorme Publishing, 1986). It is continually updated and has excellent cartography of New Hampshire features including roads (indicating type of surface), structures, some cemeteries, and churches. Although slightly oversized for easy carrying, its usefulness outweighs this hindrance.
As with other New England states, obtaining a copy of the town's lotting map (the way land was divided before being granted or sold) can be extremely beneficial in solving genealogical problems. The most comprehensive collection of these can be found at the New Hampshire Records and Archives. The layouts are cataloged by town and include the numbering process of lots and, in many cases, name of the original proprietor, which can help backtrack land holdings and provide a chain of title for problem solving. Many of these are found in the New Hampshire State Papers as well.
