I have always found maps to be an invaluable resource for researching ancestors. Plotting out who did what where and when can help you understand the known, probable and possible patterns of your ancestors' lives. A visual map also helps make family history more tangible to other members of your family who may not share your same obsession :) In any case, I decided to create a custom map for the following: Dunnings Farm, East Grinstead, Sussex, England Sites of significance in the history of the Streater/Streeter family of Dunnings Farm, East Grinstead, Sussex, England. *Green icons identify known ancestors *Blue icons identify ancestors' associations *Red icons identify potential ancestors (I'll be adding more of these) http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=10429363270310819375 3.000442f0f14a388d5af5c&ll=51.239136,-0.20874&spn=0.187861,0.44014&z=11&om=1 If that long URL doesn't work, just search for Dunnings Farm @ http://maps.google.com/maps I think it's amazing to zoom in on what was Dunnings Farm, click on the Satellite view (instead of default Map view) and see the individual fields, woods, etc. much as they were when mapped in 1776 during the era in which my STREETER ancestors occupied it. And flying over Dunnings Farm and the surrounding area in Google Earth is the next best thing to being there :) You can keep your custom map private or make it public and empower others to collaborate on it as well. I have made mine public in the hopes that sharing will eventually bring other researchers to me with "new" information via the wonder of Google search.
