Wendie,
Have you tried David Rumsey's site? I just checked and there are 45 maps of
India, including numerous maps from around 1750-1850.

> Hello,
>
> A graduate student at UCR is looking for a map of the Pondicherry
> (Pondichery, Pondicheri) India region which is south of Madras. She is a
> history student and wants a map from around 1838. Her real question
> seems
> to be, "where is the suburb of Pondichery which used to be called
> Tireauventi." She has already talked to reference librarians in the
> Rivera
> Library. It looks like there are many places today that begin with Tiru.
> The best I can do is to find a map of Environs de Pondichery in the Atlas
> Colonial Francais, dated 1931.
