AniMap Plus Version 2.6
Start finding those old towns and counties. Just about every researcher deals with the problem of finding an old town that has long-since disappeared from the map. Or, you have a known location but it was not in the same county 100 or 200 years ago. AniMap Plus now has solutions to these problems. AniMap Plus version 2.6 will display over 2,300 maps to show the changing county boundaries for each of the 48 adjacent United States for every year since colonial times. It includes all years, not just the census years. Maps may be viewed separately, or the program can set them in motion so you can automatically view the boundary changes.

Map Guide to the U.S. Federal Censuses, 1790-1920
The county has always been used as the basic Federal census unit. Genealogical research in the census, therefore, begins with identifying the correct county jurisdictions. This work shows all U.S. county boundaries from 1790 to 1920. On each of the nearly 400 maps the old county lines are superimposed over the modern ones to highlight the boundary changes at ten-year intervals. Also included is an essay on available sources for each state's old county lines. With each map there is data on boundary changes, notes about the census, and locality finding keys. There also are inset maps that clarify territorial lines and a state-by-state bibliography of sources. The detail in this work is exhaustive and of such impeccable standards that there is little wonder why this award-winning publication is the number one tool in U.S. census research. One of Genealogical Publishing Company's "Top Ten" Books of 2006.
