I bought the map last Monday at Rockingham Community College James library, contact Bob Carter, who also works with the Rockingham Co Historical Society. Look up the college on an internet search, ask for Bob Carter in the Genealogy Dept of James Library, and he can send you one. He only works until noon EST. The map was $4.50, but I think it cost about $4.50 to ship, but it's worth it.
