ABOUT THE PRESENTATION

The Sanborn Map Company created maps of small towns and large cities starting in the late 19th century to calculate premiums for fire insurance.  Such maps, many of which are now online, may have a second life as a tool for genealogists to describe the homes and neighborhoods where ancestors lived.  Learn step-by-step how to use the maps to tell nuanced stories about your ancestors’ lives.
