*Historical aerial maps can be used at [http://www.pennpilot.psu.edu/ Penn Pilot]. The searches are broken into three time periods: 1937-1942, 1957-1962 and 1967-1972. There is a preview of each aerial view, but downloading maps enables the user to better magnify the area. | *Historical aerial maps can be used at [http://www.pennpilot.psu.edu/ Penn Pilot].

The Pennsylvania State Library has an excellent collection of maps and county atlases for almost all counties. Most of these atlases were published from 1850 to 1880. You can write to the library to order a map for a particular town or county. | The Pennsylvania State Library has an excellent collection of maps and county atlases for almost all counties.
