Scientific paper

Sir G.B. Airy, the astute Astronomer Royal of the mid-nineteenth century, left an extensive accumulation of archival documents, now housed at Cambridge University in the UK. A small collection of Airy papers, dealing specifically with the Maine-New Brunswick boundary survey of the 1840s, is held by the National Archives of Canada at Ottawa, Canada. An outline of Airy's involvement in this combined astronomy-surveying project is presented in this paper.
