>> I find that Google works fine << I rather prefer Street Atlas by Delorme -it provides ALL county names -shows nearby places better -map can be scaled -county searches will have county borders outlined with a broad green line -provides latitude & longtiude -does not need internet to work - the + version has a national telephone directory - helpful to look up old friends in Fla. -lets me pinpoint where the ancestors old address used to be -plug in lat & long for a cem from USGS GNIS and voila, you can have a route mapped turn by turn to the cem you want to visit -plug a GPS into your laptop and you will see on the laptop where you are and are going -searches for multiple places persist showing on the map during a session, helping you judge proximity beyond your memory -highly recommended Paul A.
