    The Marsh & Mclellan inquiry prompts me to ask the larger question-
    can anyone suggest finding aids for map symbology keys in general?

    I am currently looking for a key to land based cultural features (such
    as roads, land cover) on a US Coast Survey chart of Casco Bay Maine
    (#315) circa 1870 or later.

    no luck so far through Google
