Greenleaf, Jeremiah (sold)
Jeremiah Greenleaf (1791 - 1864) is a little known but highly admired American cartographer of the early 19th century. He published from roughly 1830 to 1850. His most important work is A New Universal Atlas; Comprising of all the Principal Empires, Kingdoms, and States Throughout the World and Forming a distinct Atlas of the United States, published in several editions in the 1840s. Many of his maps are reformatted versions of his contemporary David Burr's much admired cartographic works. Greenleaf's maps are extremely rare and admired for their stunningly vivid pastel color washes.

This is Jeremiah Greenleaf’s 1848 map of Florida, notable as being one of the few maps to include the ephemeral Leigh Read County (Mosquito County). The map depicts Florida in full, from the Perdido River to the Atlantic Ocean and from Georgia and Alabama to Key West. Roads connecting the towns, forts, and other settlements are illustrated, along with railroads (there were only 2 at the time) and canals. In addition, the map includes 'Fleming's Grant' on the San Sabastian River, considered a potential new homeland for Irish displaced by the Potato Famine (1845 - 1849). (more details)

This is Jeremiah Greenleaf’s 1842 map of the Republic of Texas. This highly sought-after map is one of the best depictions of the Republic produced during its brief existence. Rivers and topography are elegantly engraved, trails and forts well detailed, and the Republic's counties are presented with stippled borders and original wash color. Austin - founded in 1839 - is shown as the capital; with the old capital of San Felipe de Austin is also identified. Houston, Galveston, Victoria, Richmond, and San Antonio are all noted. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the eastern portion of the Republic of Texas is well detailed. The west is virtually devoid of settlement indicating 'the progress of settlement and the nearly total lack of information in the west, a region that was to remain primarily the domain of the Comanche and the coyote for another thirty years.' (Martin and Martin) The locations of various Indian tribes are shown as well. The map includes parts of Arkansas, Louisiana, and Mexico, and the southern part of the Indian Territory. The actual outer borders of the Republic are ambiguous, perhaps deliberately, with regard to the border with Mexico. (more details)
