Title: 1890 Map of York, Ontario
Post by: punch on Thursday 14 September 17 14:33 BST (UK)

Hello,
I am looking to find the names of ancestors on Concession 2, 3 and 4 EAST of Yonge Street on Lots 1 through 10 in York, Ontario. I understand there is a 1890 map of York, Ontario that shows the names, but I cannot seem to find it on the internet. I am hoping that you can help me. Are there any later maps of York which would also show the lots and the owners? Thank you in advance.

It is actually an 1880 Map but you search by surname.

The 1890 map I was referring to is Goad's Insurance Map of Toronto.
