    Default Looking for Late 1800s US Town maps

    I'm hoping someone can help, I'm looking for maps of US towns from the late 1800s, you know "Old West" towns.

    Anyone know where I can find them? They don't have to be high-res, I just want some good reference for the general sizes of those towns.

    Try doing a GOOGLE search on 'Tombstone Map' (or something similar)... I got a few hits from that which may help you.
