Stuart, Joseph Harry
Joseph Harry Stuart (September 20, 1855 - 193?) was an American surveyor, civil engineer, and map publisher based in South Paris, Maine. Stuart was born in Bethel, Maine and married Mary Crafts Whitman (April 13, 1857 - 1934) of South Pairs, Maine, in 1878. He primarily worked and published as 'J. H. Stuart and Co.' Later, he partnered with George Nehemiah Colby (1846 - 1890), creating the firm of 'Colby and Stuart', publisher of Maine county atlases and wall maps. Likely he also maintained an office in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania where many of his maps and atlases were engraved. He appears in the South Paris city directory from about 1900 to about 1932 as a civil engineer, surveyor, and map publisher based at 61 High Street. He likely died between 1932 and 1936, but we have identified no records.
