William H.H. Friend was a
Civil War Veteran, farmer, father, husband and land surveyor who lived in
Western Maryland. Through an extraordinary turn
of luck, many of William’s surveys have survived the passage of time. William’s
original hand drawn maps and hand written surveys have remained virtually unseen
by the public for over a century. William’s works has been collected for the
first time in the book “The Maps and Papers of William H.H. Friend” by Patrick
T. Smith. This book offers a brief glimpse into the life William H.H. Friend
provides a guide for interpreting
the work and has numerous present day maps,
giving a best guess location of William’s work. The book contains over one
hundred high solution digital scans of William’s maps and surveys as well as
limited commentary on each.
