I have installed a new page in the archives. Mind you it is just under construction, so there is very little information thus far. You can link to it directly from the archives page, under history. I will be putting text files about each town as I can get the information on it. If your ancestor founded a town, chances are they will be listed. You can click on the name to go to the history of it, or you can click on the nearest town to see the map (on the right). The map links do work, but the history has only been done for Leasburg and Hinch. I will be working on the others as time permits. I keep seeing so-and-so founded this or that town as I do lookups, and I get requests for such, so I decided to just put up the site. If anyone has such information they would like to contribute, send it along. Thanks. http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/mo/crawford/villages.htm -- Joe L.
