Subject: Census boundary maps




I have a patron and several other genealogists looking census boundaries maps that would show where enumerators were going when they recorded census data during the early census years (late 1800-early 1900s). We are hoping to find where the different precincts, wards and townships within counties in Montana actually were located.

If anyone has information on where I might find something close to this please reply to me at the address below.
