-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Help with Rio Grande Map ca. 1915 Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2009 21:28:32 -0600 (MDT) From: Laurence S. Creider <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] A patron is co-teaching a course combining an engineering and artistic perspectives on the Rio Grande in New Mexico. We found a 1:63,360 scale map of 1914: Map of Mesilla Valley, showing various known river channels. [Washington, D.C.?] : U.S. Reclamation Service, Rio Grande Project, New Mexico-Texas, 1914. She is very happy with this map, so happy that she would now like a similar scaled map for at least some of the Rio Grande above what is now the Elephant Butte reservoir. She is particularly interested in following the river's course. So far, I have not been able to locate anything in our holdings or online. Can anyone make some suggestions? I've not been able to find much in Perry-Casteneda online library or the David Rumsey collection, but that may be unfamiliarity with how to search them. Thanks, Laurence S.
