Bartholomew
The name of a family of cartographers and a well-known cartographic firm in Scotland. Founded in 1797 by George Bartholomew (years of birth and death unknown). The first George's son, John B. (1831-93), was a pupil of A.H. Petermann and laid the foundations of the business by printing small-scale versions of the British official maps. His son, the third generation John George B. (1860-1920), published the Comparative Atlas and the Atlas of Scotland (both 1895), the third volume of a planned five-volume Physical Atlas, Atlas of Meteorology (1899), and the fifth volume, Atlas of Zoogeography (1911).
