I resent being sent sales pitches. I get enough of them in pop-ups.

Historic Atlas Of Indiana Counties (1876)
http://www.historic-atlas-series.com/in_map/in_index.html
The Zone 1-11 Atlas is a complete set of 1876 Indiana county maps. Each
Zone
consists of a series of 8 or more bordering county maps making up all
92 Indiana counties. Each Zone Atlas contains high resolution scanned images
of vintage 19th century county maps that are presented in Adobe Portable
Document Format (PDF).
All (11) individual Indiana Zones also available separately.
Each county map includes 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
* racetracks, fairgrounds and picnic groves
* industrial sites, furnaces and mills
* early homesteads and farms
-and much more
The Historic Atlas of Indiana series may be an invaluable aid to
Genealogists,
Historians and researchers in search of 19th century Indiana
places and place names. Many 19th century sites no longer appear on
contemporary maps and or have been obscured with time. The Historic Atlas
Series CD's provide researchers with the means to quickly search 19th
century maps when searching for extinct Indiana places.
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. The map data has been created
and configured using Adobe Acrobat Reader (6.0) for MS Windows (98, 98SE,
XP, NT and 2000). The maps may be viewed in earlier and the latest versions
of the software as well; however, optimum use of the data can be expected
using the Adobe Reader 6.0 that is included on this CD.
Details on early maps are often difficult to read and these are no
exception;
however, by virtue of the Adobe PDF formatting, these documents
may be inspected at high levels of magnification without additional digital
distortion; something that simply cannot be accomplished with paper
reproductions and photocopies.

IA, IL,
IN, KY, MI, MN, OH, PA and WI.
