Historical maps are an invaluable resource to genealogists, historians and researchers with an interest in 19th century landscape and cultural features. Individual county maps are useful for identifying 19th century transportation routes, railroads, canals, streams and rivers, cities, towns and villages, and early place names. One-room schools, churches, cemeteries and other cultural features are also included in the county maps. The city and village plat maps in each atlas are often more detailed with many early property owners identified; industrial sites including a variety of stores, factories and mills; State and local government sites: cemeteries, churches, schools, fair grounds, race tracks, asylum & hospitals; and much more. The current web site includes county maps and atlases from: Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio and Wisconsin. Pennsylvania and Kentucky will be added shortly; Missouri and West Virginia are planned during first quarter of next year. As always, all available 19th century maps and atlases may also be purchased at eBay: http://stores.ebay.com/Historic-Atlas-Series-by-HAR?refid=store Thanks for reading, Rich http://www.historic-atlas-series.com
