Check out http://www.ismi.net/lcmigw/1895.htm I have been told that a Genealogist, Dianne Richards, found this map that was about to be thrown away. Of course, I went immediately to Illinois and Minnesota and the counties of my grandparents. Minneapolis had 164,000 residents, the state had 1,301,826 residents. Illinois had 3,826,351 residents, and Chicago was host to 1,438,010 of them. The atlas is a joy to read. Elaine
