Maps
The Lay of the Land
This is an index of maps we use at this web site to illustrate our family history. They are organized into three broad categories:
- Europe - principally maps of Germany
- USA - principally maps of the middle western states, where family memembers first settled
- South America - principally maps of Brazil
This page has limited content now. We are working to add more.

- Landesherrschaften im Jahre 1801 [Territorial Domains in 1801]
- Französische Neuschöpfungen 1812 [New French Creations 1812] - territories under the 1st French Empire.
