Staffordshire Map
by Pieter van den Keere 'Miniature Speed' edition published from 1627
to 1676.he was a refugee who fled from religious persecution in the Low
Countries between 1570 and 1590. Moved to London in 1584 with his
sister who married Jodocus Hondius.About 1599 he engraved plates for 44
maps of the English and Welsh counties, the regions of Scotland and the
Irish provinces. The English maps were based on Saxton, the Scottish
maps on Ortelius and the Irish maps on the famous map by Boazio. These
maps were not published at once in book form but there is evidence
which suggests a date of issue (in Amsterdam) between 1605 and 1610
although at least one authority believes they existed only in proof
form until 1617 when Willem Blaeu issued them with a Latin edition of
Camden's Britannia. At this stage two maps were added . one of the
British Isles and the other of Yorkshire, the latter derived from
Saxton. To confuse things further the title page of this edition is
signed "Guilielmus noster Janssonius", which is the Latinized form of
Blaeu's name commonly used up to 1619.At some time after this the
plates came into the possession of Speed's publishers, George Humble,
who in 1627, the year in which he published a major edition of Speed's
Atlas, also issued the Keere maps as a pocket edition. For these he
used the descriptive texts of the larger Speeed maps and thereafter
they were known as Miniature Speeds. In fact, of the 63 maps in the
Atlas, 40 were from the original van den Keere plates, reworked, 16
were reduced from Speed and 7 were additional. The publication was very
popular and there were further reissues up to 1676. Loss to top left
