    1. Color Landform Atlas is a fantastic collection of satellite photographs of each state with county boundaries overlayed on the topography.
      



    2. Geographic Names Information System  Online Data Base Query Form is an invaluable resource for locating cities, towns, etc. which do not exist on today's maps.  The latitude and longitude for Renrock, Ohio, for example, are known from older maps.  These data are passed to the Tiger Mapping System of the U.S. Census Bureau which does not "recognize" Renrock, for example.
      


    3. How Far Is It?This service uses data from the US Census and a supplementary list of cities around
the world to find the latitude and longitude of two places, and then calculates the
distance between them (as the crow flies). It also provides a map showing the two
places, using the Xerox PARC Map Server. 
      


    4. Rand McNalley Atlas - 1895 represents a tremendous amount of work as eventually every county in the country will be represented.

Written and Collected by a Group of Renrock Descendents".  A. Zaile Thorla was the daughter of Silas Thorla.  Silas was the oldest man (born in 1859) I ever met as a child.  I can recall his stories about watching soldiers come home from the Civil War.  Many of the materials in this collection were written by Silas and had been previously published by local newspapers.]
