    3. Diane and all, Somewhere on the internet was a site for the National Archives or Smithsonian mapping "dept." It's either moved or I just can't currently find it, but it has the greatest hand drawn maps of the early colonies on through the years. The craftsmanship of the drawings is something to see. I have a couple of the maps that I downloaded, but they are so big on the hard disk that it wouldn't be worth the time to attach them. The maps use place names we wouldn't recognize today. The three maps that I have are 1739, 1765 and 1839.
