Maps
These maps are an experimental feature of this website, making use of the recently-released Google Maps API. This allows a map to be drawn and features marked on it, with options for panning and zooming, switching to satellite view, and using the markers to access other pages in the site.
When viewing the maps using the links below, some of the features available are:
- Use the arrows to pan the view, or click and drag anywhere on the map to move it.
- Use the +/- buttons to zoom in and out.
- Switch back and forth between Map and Satellite views.
- Click on a marker to see a descriptive balloon.
- Click on a link within a balloon to go to the genealogy data for that person.
Note that many rural areas are not covered by hi-res aerial photography, so the satellite views in those areas are pretty fuzzy. In the links below, Monmouth Co. has the best detailed satellite views. Also note that you must be running a fairly recent browser version for this to work correctly. IE 5.5 and above, Firefox, and the latest Netscape browsers should work.
The following maps show various locations related to these family history pages, showing the locations of cemeteries, houses, and other significant sites.
