These age verification methods can lead to identity theft. If blue sky asks for it, I may decline.

I have studied Massachusetts county and town boundary history for many years, and have put together my own maps. This for example.

if you have Massachusetts data, I can probably map it

Massachusetts has had several towns, districts, and townships that got annexed to something else. Bethlehem, for example.

because I write my own software, I can make special maps too.

I have spent years researching the town and county boundaries of Mass., and have computerized it. I write my own software, and can superimpose boundaries of different dates. I have well over 1000 changes mapped out.

I hope to find a publisher for my Atlas. The index will have about 1400 entries.

Where do you find treasure maps? I have yet to find any for my area.
