Historical T-Sheets

T-Sheets are historic shoreline maps that were created in the early 1900s for many major waterways of the United States. The T-Sheets contain a lot of historical information such as locations of buildings, detailed descriptions of shorelines, etc. I have found them for several Hawaiian Islands, Puget Sound, and the Everglades. This first installment covers the Hawaiian Islands of Maui and Oahu and includes about 140 maps. I will try to add other areas as I have time.
