Older maps

[Highlifter1000]

Good evening. Can anyone give me a few sites with older past maps....Topo... Satellite etc? I always search for myself before asking but I haven't been successful. There is civil war history in Tensas Parish where I live and I know of a ferry landing but need to an older map for reference. Any help is greatly thanked.

Might try googling with different types of searches.. History of Tensas parish.. etc.. I find what works in one state is not helpful in the next Good luck

Historic Aerialscom They have maps also. Probably only go back to the 1940's but helpful because change came slow until after WW2. Also maybe LSU Library.

Im very familiar with history of Winter Quarter's and local civil war action here. Just having a hard time getting a hold of some older maps. Thank you for replying. I appreciate it.

Not much help Have you tried your county historical society/library those have both paid off for me.

I saw a YouTube clip awhile back. It took older aerials and blended them over current aerials. You control the blending which was cool to watch. Tried to find it but cant remember the name or what it was attached to. I’m going to keep looking but I’m not that good at this……

Highlifter1000, there is a Maps forum and a Technology forum below. Your question was probably answered in one of those already.
Your right to ask and I should look at these forums more often too.
Best of luck,
Tony

Ron, your last two sentences had to describe me. I had to laugh.
