Author: r_a_green Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.texas.counties.burnet/2762/mb.ashx Message Board Post: 19th CENTURY ATLAS, MAPS, HISTORICAL GUIDES & GAZETTEERS (includes publications from IA, IN, MN, OH and WI) http://www.historic-atlas-series.com/hgg.html Historians, genealogists and researchers of the 19th century Midwestern United States will find the vast amount of historical research material in these books and atlases on CD a very valuable resource. Each of these extensive gazeteer and immigrant guides contain the description of places and place names, many of which are no longer found on contemporary maps, including: cities, towns, villages, settlements, schools, post offices, transportation routes and schedules, and much more. Historical Guides and Gazetteer CD's may also include maps of the period providing cartographic reference to 19th century places identified and discussed in the literature. Also included are hundreds of advertisements by contributing businesses providing historical insight into the goods, services and the merchants that made them available during the 19th century. Anyone interested in the history of these regions will find this material useful. ------------------------------------------------------------ HISTORIC ATLAS SERIES (includes 19th century atlases of IA, IL, IN, KY, KS, MI, MN, NE, OH, PA, VA and WI) http://www.historic-atlas-series.com/has.html The Historic Atlas Series CD's are digital reproductions of 19th century maps and historical atlas data in Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF). The Adobe Reader software is required to view, manipulate and print PDF data is included on each CD. States with maps and atlases currently available are shown in the graphic to the right. 19th century geographic and statistical data are useful to historians, genealogists and researchers with an interest in the landscape and cultural setting of this period. Early county maps may contain many places that no longer exist or that have been obscured over time. Atlases with statistical data provide vivid detail of 19th century pioneer lifestyles. Details on early maps are often difficult to read and these are no exception; however, by virtue of the Adobe PDF formatting, these documents may be inspected and printed at high levels of magnification without additional digital distortion; something that simply cannot be accomplished with paper reproductions and photocopies. There is a vast amount of information that can be gleaned from these sources and the diligent researcher will find these cartographic resources useful in their studies. ------------------------------------------------------------ Good luck with your research!

Quite interesting. You know, maybe poor ole Elizabeth might have been a "witch", but there simply ain't no evidence thereof. More than likely the poor woman has suffered the pitfals of a spooky headstone stranscription! Similar situation happened with my grandmother in the Blanco County Cemetary. My parent put an inscription in French on the stone, as my grandma was fromthe ole country. Suddently she became a French nun who died in Blanco!

Here are a few tidbits to add. In the early 1970,s we had an old lady who was from La.who lived down the road, and everyone said she was a witch. I was determined to talk to her. All the kids in town were scared to go by her house. I rode right up in her driveway, and I will admit, I was scared. She would put knitting needles in her hair, and wore strange clothing. It turned out that she was an amazing and wonderful lady, and I spent many a day visiting with her. Her family did know vodoo though, but she did not practice it. She said that she was a converted christain for many years, and that even in the 1970,s it was still practiced by some of her family, and they claimed to be witches. http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~txwcgs/cemeteryphotos/Bittick/ElizSimpson.jpg http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~txwcgs/cemeterylisting/Bittick.htm Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
