A previous note under this heading (v. Arch. Cant., Vol. LIII, p. 137) concluded with a conjecture that many other John Bowra maps lay buried in lawyers' and estate offices in various parts of Kent and Sussex. That this was indeed the case is now shown by the valuable collection of maps of properties in West Kent recently presented to the Kent Archæological Society by Mr. John Knocker, of Tonbridge. Among these are nine John Bowra maps of various dates between 1748 and 1780, the year in which he died.
   The K.A.S. having kindly permitted me the loan of these maps I am able to list them briefly as follows:
