Post by MaryA »

Check this out. You can overlap 19th century maps with modern maps or Google aerial photographs. It's a great opportunity to see where your ancestors lived in relation to modern maps

Thanks for that Mary. I have been looking for something like this for some time. Has anyone tried to print from the site? If so how do you do it?

Cheers!
