I have the same problem as Debbie Hall.
Your link gave a 503 gateway error.
Now I just tried it again and it does go to the map.

This is the website I use instead:
http://www.geonames.org/

Yeah, no https, but my website doesn't have https either.

Is anyone else struggling to search for official US geographic names for foreign places? I keep getting spun in circles, I get to the web app but it won't load or I get an "unresponsive" message following a search. Does anyone have a link that works? Is it possible to load the app without the map? I only need summaries - official and variant place names.

Help!

Here's one of the many links that sends me into a vortex ...
