    I need a map!

    I am looking for a map of the western section of Cole County, Missouri from the mid to late 1800's. A plat map would be great but any map that shows roads and trails will work.

    Please don't send or post links to map websites unless you know the map I am searching for is available on that site.

    Thanks!

    Oldest one I have is from 1914, hope it helps. You should be able to go to the courthouse and get older ones unless they had a fire or something, good luck.

    As already said, courthouses are the place for plats. The courthouse in the seat of the county in question might have it.
