Hello All. I have recently been contact by someone who informed me that they intended to"hijack" the work I have put into the MAPCO website, by using the following map with or without my permission: Map Of London Showing The Boundaries Of Parishes, Ecclesiastical Districts, And Poor Law Divisions. 1877. http://archivemaps.com/mapco/parish/parish.htm When I expressed that this was not acceptable, the response was that they should have just stolen the item for their use anyway without contacting me, implying that I had no right to an attitude of protection or ownership of my real and intellectual property. Folks, we have all been through this before with Wallis's 1801 map, and many of you actively assisted to redress the situation with the persons involved (for which I thank you). Even so, it resulted in removal of that map from the MAPCO website for about 18 months, until I found the time to heavily watermark the images and re-display the map. The MAPCO website represents an input of tens of thousands of hours of my personal time over the last 6-7 years, plus an enormous personal financial outlay of which you can only speculate. I have always been willing to generously share the maps online for researchers worldwide to use for free. In return I simply ask for honest use of the site (I rarely have to push the issue of copyright ownership, which is certainly law in my country and many others, though with varying restrictions). Anyway, it is my sad duty to inform you that the London Parish Boundaries Map 1877 has been removed from display from the MAPCO website. It was perhaps the most unique London map on the site, and it is with great regret that I am removing it from display. It is not currently my intention to ever return it to the site. I sincerely apologise to all of you who used this map. Kind regards, David Hale, Adelaide, South Australia.
