Hi there,
I have a question about Ordnance Survey
maps of Ireland that were drawn around the turn of the
century, 1904-1906 or so. I am cataloging a number of “Old
Ordnance Survey Maps,” The Godfrey Edition, which are modern
reprints. They refer only to the name “Ordnance Survey,” but
I am thinking this is not the Great Britain Ordnance Survey,
but the Irish one, because the original maps were published by
“the Director General at the Ordnance Survey Office, Phoenix
Park, Dublin.” Can someone clarify for me just who was
responsible for the original maps?
There are dozens of records in OCLC for
these modern maps, but only a few record the corporate name as
Ordnance Survey of Ireland. Here is the name authority record
for that body:
110 2 Ordnance Survey of Ireland
410 1 Great Britain. ǂb Ordnance Survey
of Ireland ǂw nnaa [this is a form of the name that used to
be used in bibliographic records]
410 2 Survey of Ireland
410 2 Léarscáilíocht Éireann
510 2 Ordnance Survey (Ireland)
667 Valid for pre-1922 imprints
Thanks in advance for your help!
