Jeane Sue A wrote: Maps from AAA 1) are free with membership 2) can now be ordered from their website & sent to your abode 3) are up-to-date 4) most state road maps are for two 'neighboring' states, such as Illinois on one side and Indiana on the other AND the same is true for other parts of the world. Examples I own: Germany, Austria & Switzerland and including Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovak Republic, Liechtenstein Great Britain & Ireland Mexico (by itself) Scandinavia - consists of Norway, Sweden, Denmark & Finland France & Benelux and includes Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Andorra, Monaco and a great combo called Planning Map of Europe - list of countries a bit lengthy to reiterate here The Rand McNally Road Atlas book used to be available at Wal-Mart for $4.97 and is a genealogist's gem. All the state pages show counties and there is a good of counties & cities. There are more cities shown on the individual state maps, but the Road Atlas serves the purpose most of the time. Whether Wal-Mart has them now, I do not know. S Alberts Many would be scantily clad if dressed in their own humility. HUGS HUGS HUGS
