Purdy, Isaac 2


Isaac Purdy 2 (fl. c. 1840 - 1869) was an English engraver and publisher of Blueback nautical charts active in the middle part of the 19th century. Purdy is presumed to be grand-nephew of the earlier generation map publisher John Purdy (1773 - 1843). He was active until at least 1869, possibly later, and should not be confused with the Admiralty Hydrography Isaac Purdy 1 (1804 - 1852).
