General Karte vom Europaischen Russland (1844) C.F. Weiland This map contains pre-1843 boundaries. Kovno gubernia was administered by early 1843 but does not appear here where the original boundary of Vilna guberniia is pictured. Thus the date of the map is slightly confusing if one is looking for the Kovno province.

South-West Russia (1912) Keith Johnston A variety of political boundaries from different centuries are pictured. In bold red is the boundary of the former Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth before it's partition in 1772; the Congress Kingdom of Poland, established 1815 is bounded in green. Gubernia divisions are included and dates of significant battles are located by a symbol of crossed swords.
The growth of Russian railways can be followed in these maps. Of the four versions, the 1879 and 1893 have the most extensive and well marked rail routes.
