Thanks Paul, I tried these sites when you posted them the other day for someone but no luck. I'm also trying to find a place called Moseley or Mossley in Lancs ENG and had no luck with that either. Did find two Moseleys but in the wrong area. I'm hoping someone with local knowledge may be able to help, but Thanks for taking the time to suggest the sites. I've also tried multimaps. streetmap and encarta Cheers Sheila ---------- > From: Paul Hanly <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [NSW-W] Eglington and Mt Pleasant > Date: Saturday, March 18, 2000 12:49 > > Here are some URL's for looking up places on the net: > Australian Geographic Place Names > http://www.environment.gov.au/database/MAN200R.html > Geographical Names Board of NSW http://www.lic.gov.au/gnb/search.htm > Expedia World maps http://maps.expedia.com/OverView.asp > World wide directory of cities and towns > http://www.calle.com/world/index.html > > Hope these are of some use. > > Cheers > Paul Hanly > Rhodes, Sydney, Australia > > Bellingen Gen Web www.rootsweb.com/~nswbelli/ > [email protected] North Coast NSW mail list > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Sheila Longden <[email protected]> > To: <[email protected]> > Sent: Saturday, March 18, 2000 2:27 AM > Subject: [NSW-W] Eglington and Mt Pleasant > > > > Hi can anyone help , > > I am trying to find both the above areas in the Dubbo or Bathurst areas.
