Try doing a google search for some of your local areas, there's alot of information available, some of it just takes alittle digging. Check-out your local library as well. Ask around of your friends to MD their properties....family & friends also have family & friends, as do co-workers.....just put the word out & before you know it you'll have all sorts of places to hunt.

Good Luck!

don't forget to use GoogleMaps in your research - you can really get a great view of things from above and can sometimes "see" where things used to be...

And Welcome!

Thats true about Google Earth... I have been using it to plot how to get to this old railroad line out here that was used in the 1800's. Wasn't sure where it exactly was until i zoomed out to about 30,000 feet and there she was! I cant wait to get over there!
