Sanborn Maps

Beginning in the mid 1800s, the Sanborn Map Company began creating the Sanborn Maps, originally used for estimating fire insurance liability. The information recorded in these maps generally includes streets, building outlines, building usage, and building materials. Today the Sanborn Maps have become an important tool for researchers.
