Sometimes we can't locate these out-of-the-way places/features such as "Little Stinking Quarter" (a creek) that Bill was looking for. A site that may help in locating a multitude of various type places is the "Geographic Names Information System" site. For those that aren't familiar with this site, you'll find it at: http://www-nmd.usgs.gov/www/gnis/gnisform.html This site allows one to locate a variety of different features, etc., then links you to appropriate maps for what you ask for. The maps are my favorite part because once the place is located, you can zoom in several times to get closeups of the place! For example, at the site I input: Little Stinking Quarter for Feature Name North Carolina for State or Territory Name Stream for Feature Type Clicked on Send Query. Well, there was no match for Little Stinking Quarter, so I changed to Stinking Quarter Creek for Feature Name. There was one hit and it listed variant names for the creek. Next to view the maps of the creek, click on "Show Feature Location." You get two maps.... one locates the feature in the U.S. The other map lets you zoom in on the feature. Try playing with this site to see what you can discover.... look for something you've never been able to find.... like a cemetery or such! Have fun!
