"...of his 1685 map or copies of Sanson's map of 1656. In 1693 Pierre Mortier published a close copy of Jaillot's 1685 map. 110 " (Heidenreich 1980:51)
Described in Catalogue of the National Map Collection, Public Archives of Canada, V1/900-[1700], H2/900-[1700], H3/900-[1700], Volume 10, p. 319: "It is difficult to give an exact date for the map as it appeared in at least two atlases published by Mortier circa 1700. The map appeared in late editions of Mortier's Suite du Neptune francais ou atlas nouveau des cartes marines and in his Atlas Nouveau of 1708. Consequently, the map is best assigned the date circa 1700. As Hubert Jaillot and Pierre Mortier were joint publishers, it is not surprising that Mortier drew heavily upon Jaillot's map 'Partie de la Nouvelle France' which was first published in 1685."
