After reading several messages about the location of towns that no longer exist, I came across a great collection of historical maps on the web. You will enjoy this! http://www.davidrumsey.com Jim Brewer About the David Rumsey Collection The David Rumsey Collection was started nearly 20 years ago, and focuses primarily on cartography of the Americas from the 18th and 19th centuries. The collection includes atlases, globes, school geographies, books, maritime charts, and a variety of separate maps, including pocket, wall, childrens and manuscript. Materials that were created in America and that illustrate the evolution of the countrys history, culture, and population distinguish the collection. Close inspection of the maps often reveals the rise and fall of towns, mining excavations, the unfolding of the railroads, and the discovery of the American West by European explorers. The collection also includes European imprints containing maps of the Americas that were influential to American cartographers, as well as maps of other parts of the world distinguished by great craftsmanship, significance and beauty.
