Seems like I heard about a website where you can find any township in the country. Does anyone know of such a site?
http://geonames.usgs.gov/gnisform.html (For anyone else who has GNIS bookmarked, this is a new URL for them---they've redesigned the form a bit). Depending on what you're trying to do: if you're looking for all townships called BLAINE, for example, put Blaine in the "feature name", and use "civil" from the drop down menu for "feature type." If you want to restrict it to a particular state, put the state name in the "state or territory" box. If you don't know what the township names are for a particular county, and want a list, leave the feature name blank, put the state name in the appropriate box, "civil" as type, and put in the county name. You may get some other civil designations besides townships, but you'll know which ones are the townships: they'll be listed this way (to use an example from Greene County): Cass, Township of Megan "Piglet" Zurawicz, ListPig [email protected] [email protected] -----Original Message----- From: Bruce Varner [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, March 14, 2001 8:31 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [MO] Township Lookup Importance: High Seems like I heard about a website where you can find any township in the country.
