This class will describe how maps in the collections of The New York Public
Library and elsewhere can be used to drive genealogical research and
illustrate family histories. The focus will be on digitized maps.
We will explore fire insurance maps and atlases, military and topographical
maps, county maps and atlases, and many more kinds of maps, to locate
records, discover where our ancestors lived, and what their lives were like.
