Herman Moll :''This article is about the cartographer; for the convict, see Germán Moll (convict).'' Herman Moll (1654? – September 22, 1732), was a London cartographer, engraver, and publisher. ==Origin and early life== Moll's exact place of origin is unknown, although his birth year is generally accepted to be the year 1654. He moved to England in 1678 and opened a book and map store in London. He produced maps from his studies of the work of other cartographers.〔Barber, p. 190.〕〔Reinhartz.〕 Due to Moll's important work in Dutch cartography and the fact that he undertook a journey in his late years on behalf of the Netherlands, it is assumed he originated from Amsterdam or Rotterdam. The name, "Moll" occurred not only in the Netherlands however but also in the north German area, which may suggest a German origin. Dennis Reinhartz's biography assumed that Moll came from Bremen, and other more recent works assume Germany as well.〔Barber, p. 190.〕〔Reinhartz.〕
