It is more than just one map. It is several land plots and county designations on separate maps from the late 1800's to about 1910. You will need to compare them in detail to see the differences from period to period. I found my family trail through the changes by studying them. Then I received the final answers on Fairfield with a map given to me by (of all things!) a grave digger in the area when I visited the area on my search last summer. It took me several study periods to get the idea of all the line changes, but I did. I finally found the actual mortuary that buried my family. Not to get your hopes up, but if you want to study what I have, I will need to scan them and send them. Guess this is the great part of the mishiawa site. Hopefully, you can share some stuff about the area with me. ----- Original Message ----- From: Edward Zuellig<mailto:ez1@ejourney.com> To: mishiawa@rootsweb.com<mailto:mishiawa@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, November 09, 2006 9:51 PM Subject: Re: [MISHIAWA] Jerome Sawyer 1810 - 18??

I would love to have you scan them for me. If you need my address I will sent it on to you personally. Thanks very much.
