The Historic Atlas of Indiana series may be an invaluable aid to Genealogists, Historians
and researchers in search of 19th century Indiana places. Each Atlas CD consists of a
series of 8 or 9 bordering counties making up 1 of 11 Zones that depict all 92 Indiana
counties. Each Zone Atlas contains 400 dpi scanned images of vintage 1876 county maps that
are organized and presented in Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF). Original paper source
quality varied from county to county; however, every effort has been made to retain the
integrity of the original maps during conversion to digital format.
Each county map may include the following 19th century features:
* roads, railroads and canals
* cities, towns and villages
* post offices and government sites
* one-room schoolhouses, churches and cemeteries
* rivers, streams and ferries
* industrial sites, furnaces and mills
* early homesteads and farms
* and much, much more
The Adobe Acrobat Reader for MS Windows is needed to view, zoom, pan and print from the
PDF map images contained in this atlas, and is included free on each CD. No other software
is necessary.
