Interestingly, the Wikipedia article on Treasure Island suggests that the map came first in Treasure Island. Stevenson's stepson had made a map of an island and Stevenson decided to write the book, Treasure Island, as the back story to the map.
Unfortunately the original map was lost by his publishers and the one finally printed was Stevenson's reconstruction from memory which he didn't think was quite right.
