The following URL was sent to a list for migration trails and I thought
others would benifit by having it. It is just chock full of interestging
information and maps.
It will take some time to get thru this site. Every state has more than two
maps in this site. Migration maps help to find how our ancestors found
their way to settle in IN., overland or the Ohio River. The Old Wagon Road
and/or the National Road. There was a lakes road that skirted Lake Erie that
came into Ohio and Indiana. Depending on where they came from, who they
traveled with was how they got to Indiana. The getting from one point to
another is very important to know and maps are that tool to be using.

Thanks for your sharing, Beej. Some subscribers have likely viewed the
following link:

americas)
that includes many maps. Don't overlook the link to the David Rumsey
Collection, that
has many items of general interest in addition to migration maps.
