Hi Chris and all, Yes, thats a good suggestion, and I have been looking for these lately at the library but will probably have to buy one or several. The problem seems to be finding a useful, accurate, detailed map. Are there any highly detailed maps online, and if not, what very detailed contemporary maps do you recommend? Even better, are there any detailed maps available from the 16th and 17th century? Thanks, Bob Fay I would also suggest that > anyone researching the Huguenots have not only a highly > detailed contemporary map of France and any other countries > their families moved to or through but also a historical > atlas, since some areas that are now in one country were > then in another.
