Everyone,
Announcing a new web site with more historic maps of more areas:
 
http://historical.maptech.com/
 
States available now include all of New England, Delaware,
Maryland, New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania. The new site is hosted
by and supported by Maptech. They have but a substantial amount of
effort into putting the new site together. Ed Lecuyer, a NERAIL member
and the QA manager at Maptech was instrumental in arranging things.
Thanks should go to Alan Simpson and Josh Davis at Maptech as well.
We also have Ohio and most of West Virginia scanned, waiting for
me to find some time to get them assembled and organized. These two
states and some of Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania will come as the
result of the scanning efforts made by Stephen Titchenal and Derrick
Brashear.
 
The University of New Hampshire Library has decided to keep the
collection there to New England and New York. This UNH site will remain up.
 
Feel free to forward this on to any lists that might find these
maps useful and of interest.
