Eugène Anddriveau-Goujon was a map publisher and cartographer active in 19th-century Paris. Andriveau-Goujon maps are often with confusing signatures to identify as they are found under different names including J. Goujon, J. Andriveau, J.Andriveau-Goujon, E. Andriveau-Goujon or simply Andriveau-Goujon. This refers to the multiple generations of the Anddriveau-Goujon dynasty and the tendency to republish older material without updating the byline. The first maps to have the Andriveau-Goujon imprint were released by Jean Andriveau-Goujon.
