THE ABOVE LINKS ARE BROKEN. These had been off-site links to the Archives of Ontario's RG-100 Patent Plans. In 2023 the A of O replaced the 'Archives Descriptive Database' with the 'AIMS' database. Please direct inquiries to the Archives of Ontario quoting the RG 1-100 collection and urging for restoration of *large-sized* map images. (I'm always happy to hear from you too).

The names on these maps are not transcribed for the HeritagePIN databases.

No pre-Confederation era maps have been found, or are known to have been published. See the hand-drawn Patent Maps.

The University of Toronto’s Digital archives has a PDF file of the 1879 Guidebook & Atlas for MUSKOKA & PARRY SOUND. See these maps superimposed on a modern map at the Muskoka Story Map application!
