Hi Lori Lyn, I have found the Dover Clip Art series books to be really helpful when I need public domain images. For U.S. maps, I have used: Runquist, Phillip. Ready-to-Use Outline Maps of the U.S. States and Regions: 159 Different Copyright-Free Maps Printed One Side (Dover Clip Art). Mineola, N.Y.: Dover Publications, 1994. It is still available from Amazon third-party sellers for less than $5.00. Hope this is helpful, Karen Wallace Steely The Past Matters Website: www.ThePastMatters.com Email: karen@ThePastMatters.com -----Original Message----- From: transitional-genealogists-forum-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:transitional-genealogists-forum-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Lori Lyn Price Sent: Wednesday, November 14, 2012 5:40 PM To: Transitional Genealogists List Subject: [TGF] maps in the public domain Hello, I would like to use some basic maps for some of my genealogy talks, but am having trouble finding any that are clearly in the public domain. Examples of what I am looking for include a map of the US with the states outlined, or a state map with the counties outlined. All that I have found thus far is either copyrighted, or it's unclear if copyright applies. Please let me know if you know of any US or state maps that are in the public domain. Thanks!
