    3. My good friend Charles Reeves, who created the maps I use on the Clarion County Genealogy & History Web site, has a new item in his catalogue: a **complete** edition of Caldwell's 1877 Atlas of Clarion County. As far as we can determine, this is the only **complete** digital edition available anywhere. What makes this version so amazing is Charles' attention to detail. He used copyright-free images from the Library of Congress and supplemented the LoC's incomplete set of Atlas images with high-resolution, full-size scans of pages from my original Atlas. Then Charles worked on each digital image to make them as free as possible from blips, discolorations, and digitizing "artifacts." The results are remarkable. Please check out the CD at http://www.reevesmaps.com/ClarionAtlas/clarionatlas.htm. I think you'll agree this is a must-have for any Clarion County researcher. Note: I do not have any commercial interest in this product. I am just a huge fan of Charles' work, and I wanted to spread the word to others.
