The Illustrated Historical Atlas of the State of Minnesota (abridged on CD)
is now available:

http://www.historic-atlas-series.com/

This abridged digital version of the Illustrated Historical Atlas of the
State of Minnesota consists of 19th century cartographic data including all
of the 1874 Minnesota counties and 49 city and village plats from this
period.

Individual county maps are useful for identifying 1874 transportation
routes, railroads, canals, streams and rivers, cities, towns and villages,
and early Minnesota place names. One-room schools, churches, cemeteries and
other cultural features are also included in the county maps.

The city and village plat maps in the Minnesota Atlas are often more
detailed with many early property owners identified; industrial sites
including a variety of stores, factories and mills; State and local
government sites: cemeteries, churches, schools, fair grounds, race tracks,
asylum & hospitals; and much more.

The high resolution digital map data is presented in Adobe Portable
Document
Format (PDF). and the Adobe Acrobat Reader is included on each CD.

Other recent additions to the Historic Atlas Series include the states of
Iowa and Wisconsin.  Pennsylvania, Kentucky and Missouri CD's are planned
for the near future.

Thanks for reading...please check back often for more updates.
