Oh my goodness... I found this interesting map of the creation of Washington State counties online http://www.ac.wwu.edu/~stephan/Animation/wa.div.html and this information page containing lots of historical maps at http://info.er.usgs.gov/fact-sheets/maps-us/ last but not least.... I finally found what I was looking for at http://www.mapquest.com/ Hope you enjoy the sites I've found.... Darilee
