jbgibson replied to a thread What is in a City!!! in Town/City Mapping

Deaghaidh, Google "Victorian occupations". That's the 1890's, but many would hold true into Earth's 1920's. First up was this from an 1891 census.

Thanks for the rep! I would very much like to see your take on a map themed: "unravel a very wrinkly river", for me it was a very rewarding experience as well as a very frustrating one at times.

Thanks for the Rep! I had already picked 2 cloud pictures to use as the edges of the river, but when I saw those 2 sunset pictures I changed plans from doing a regular river to the lava river. So I actually used 4 different cloud pictures to make the map. I was pleasantly surprised how it came out.
