Handybook for Genealogists (eighth edition) has 6 or 7 pgs devoted to
migration trails. There was one called the national road that started in
Baltimore, went through Indianapolis & Terre Haute & on to St. Louis; there
was one called the Buffalo Trace started in Louisville, went thru Orange &
Martin on to Vincennes, on into IL thru Richland, Clay, Marion Counties,
then down to Kaskaskia, IL; there was another that started up in in Lucas
Co., OH, went into Allen Co., IN, down to Indianapolis, then on to the
corner of Owen, Greene & Monroe (where they meet) & ends at Vincennes.
There is also a book called Early Indiana Trails and Surveys by George
R. Wilson, & pringed by the Society of Indiana Pioneers. I found it in Salt
Lake & it was a repring w/permission of The Indiana Historical Society.
Call #977.2/R2wi. Hope the above helps you out.
