Subject: historic Hawaii maps question

Folks, one of our geography faculty is involved in a cartographic
project regarding historic Hawaii maps. Specifically, an issue
involving the nature of the survey system used. Yes, I have directed
him to U. of Hawaii and he has talked to Ross and Riley. I have just
directed him to Gary Fitzpatrick as well.
In your collections, do you have any Hawaii maps dating roughly
1880-1900? Are they on a web site? Do you have any experts on your
campus re historic Hawaii??
Finding a map which contains an explanation of the particular system
would be very helpful. He is checking various web sites [Rumsey,
etc.] now.
Thank you for any help or direction!
