New* The map on this page has been modified Mar 19, 2010,
with Mouse Over Hot Spots,
on all the Schools, Churches, Towns, Rivers, Creeks, Lakes, etc.
shown on the large map below,
If you "hover" your mouse pointer over any item,
it will show a caption note for that item,
which when "clicked on",
will take you to the name and brief description I show below.
This will help better to identify the Schools and Churches, etc.
 not named on the map.
Note- Some still not identified, or researched.
