A note from Jean Piercy to Dr. Fern Rahmel accompanied this map. In it, Piercy says, "It [the map] was among my husband's papers, so I can only assume it was in his care when he was overseas in the R.A.F. W.W.II." The note is now located in the Jean Piercy donor file, Trent University Archives.
William Piercy was a member of the Royal Air Force during World War II.
