Included are ms. maps; and copied, traced, outline and published maps, most with added ms. notations.

Ordening
No discernible original order existed at the time of processing, therefore, the materials have been arranged into sub-series based on their apparent use. While the creation of a few of the maps and some of the notations can be attributed to Duff, the responsibility for many ms. maps and ms. additions is unknown. The date of creation of most of the published maps acquired by Duff can be clearly identified, however, it is uncertain when these might actually have been used, or when the ms. notations might have been added. Accordingly, published maps with ms. notations have been recorded showing a span of dates, from the publication date to 1976.
Ms. notations on many maps follow a system of circular symbols used by Duff to indicate former villages, present villages, and non-Indian settlements. A legend for these markings can be found on Duff-CM-40 and Duff-CM-39. The materials were initially identified, in pencil, by “Duff” followed by an item number. Wherever possible, this earlier marking has been removed, but it remains on encapsulated items. To avoid confusion, maps processed during the creation of this finding aid have been labelled in pencil or black marker with “Duff-CM-” (for cartographic material), followed by an item number.
