Sanborn maps.

[khouse]

I can't get into the Sanborn maps anymore. The general way most of us got in was User name - Residents Password - Welcome
Doesn't work for me anymore. Does someone have a working user name and pass word?

This Works:

Residence

Welcome

 

[khouse]

Yes it worked! Leave it to me to spell residence wrong...

When I get in it's like I'm running in circles what's the secret of finding exactly what you're looking for. Any idea's
on how to do a search say for a old town location from the late 1800's that's no longer their. The little town was only
their for about 30-40 years before it disappeared....Any help would be helpful

 

[khouse]

If you looking at a big town then there are a lot of maps to search. I just start with the earliest date. If I don't see what I want I click on the next earliest date and look again.

They got wise and now you must pay or have an library affiliation.

There was a post not to long ago about this, Maybe it was another forum
I just checked, and it still works,
When I go to the site the 1st time, it says FORBIDDEN!!
I just click it again out of my favorites, and it goes back and forth a few times,
Then it comes up fine??
Workin' for me anyway
