In 1762 he was apprenticed to the London mapmaker and publisher Thomas Jefferys Sr., Geographer to King George III. It is here that he first learned the talents that made him the greatest British land-surveyor of his generation. As the Seven Years' War, and its American phase, drew to a close, Jefferys turned his attention away from military mapping to large-scale surveys of the English counties with Ainslie taking a leading role. At Jefferys' death in 1771 Ainsie returned to Scotland, establishing himself in business in Edinburgh as a land surveyor and publisher. He is best known for the sequence of large-scale Scottish county maps and his great map of Scotland. The Counties of Ayr and Dumfries were proposed but not produced and therefore this is the complete set of South West Scotland contained in a contemporary box labelled in gilt to the spine 'Counties of Kircudbright/Renfrew/Selkirk/Wigton'. No copies have been traced of these maps selling at auction.
