Based on the Historical Maps of Pennsylvania website, links were added to freely available scans from the Library of Congress, the David Rumsey Collection, Penn State University Libraries, the Pennsylvania State Archives, the Free Library of Philadelphia and others. Information was gathered from several checklists (see below) along with historical county information, to create an authoritative listing of early Pennsylvania maps and atlases.
Many atlases have not been scanned yet. Many of these can be found on USGenWeb Archives for free in black and white by township or Historic Map Works to view for free from non-.edu domains.
City atlases are not listed here but can be found on the Historical Maps of Pennsylvania website. Atlases of City of Philadelphia are too numerous to include here, although a few are listed under the County of Philadelphia. See Greater Philadelphia GeoHistory Network for scans of Philadelphia city maps and atlases.

| Philadelphia | Philadelphia is a special case, as large-scale city (and environs) maps were steadily published from its earliest days. Today the city and county of Philadelphia are one and the same, the only such arrangement in the state. The Act of Consolidation, passed by the state legislature in 1854, provided that “the city of Philadelphia, as limited by the charter of 1789, should be enlarged by taking in all the territory within the county of Philadelphia.” | |
| The maps of Philadelphia, both before and after 1789, are too numerous to include here, although a few are listed. See Manuscript Group 11 in the Pennsylvania State Archives and Phillips for lists of Philadelphia maps from this period, many of which also include the county. Also see PhilaGeoHistory.org for a listing of maps and Historical Maps of Pennsylvania‘s City Atlas page for city maps. A listing of Philadelphia Ward maps can be found through the Free Library of Philadelphia. | ||
