Hello Gloria; I hope you can answer a question. Or atleast point me in the right direction. I've only been researching for a year now. I gather the name of the map I'am in question about is a Platt map. I take a Platt map shows the sections of a given area. Where and how do I attain these for Macoupin Countys?
