For those interested in the 1856 Peelor Map. It is available from th PA State Archives in Harrisburg. They will make a full size copy of the Map (In Black and White) for $32.50 (Includes Shipping and handling). A digitized copy on CD costs 22.50. It is scanned full size on an engineering scanner and then printed or put on CD. The cost may vary slightly if the map needs special handling, which he couldn't tell me over the phone. I am going to order a digitized copy which may take 3-4 weeks and then I'll put it online. I will put it online FULL SIZE, so it may take some time to download for those who wish to look at it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "TJ Shumaker" <tshu@cableone.net> To: <PAINDIAN-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, April 18, 2004 11:12 PM Subject: Re: [INDIANA] 1856 Peelor Map > I am not sure how he is trying to reproduce it.
