Maps
I was searching for maps of the carolinas and ran across a selection
of maps that I really need to share. One I was amazed to find,
varing states are in different colors so very easy to identify, list
the property of both france and England in 1765, certainly helps in
trying to visualize where people actually were living, and why
documents from Tenn and SC can be found in NC Archives, Second map is
from 1799 after the war, and divisions of states began, shows indian
territory. Amazing how much American history one learns when
researching families.
