1929 Sanborn Fire Insurance Company Maps

Tuesday, June 17th, 2008

Here are some maps of Troy from 1929.  They show in pretty good detail the existing building, how they were heated, and whether they had electricity.  These maps came from the Sanborn Fire Insurance Company.  They operated from the 1800’s to 1929.  We are trying to locate the original books from Troy.  They are very large and are leather bound.  These digital maps came from the University of Idaho.
