I've got some old maps you guys in Kiowa County Oklahoma might be interested in...

Here's what I'm talkin' about...
If there's no interest, I'll stop wasting everyone's time.
In the first shot here's Township 7 from 1913
And here's a zoom of one school (I've found 3 so far), on the left is the 1913 map and the school is the green marker, on the right is where it stood on a modern Google Earth image...
You might notice the red marker on the road is where the creek crosses the road in 1913 but below it in the modern image, that's because the creek's path has changed over the years.
So, like I say, if anyone is interested, I'll happily share this research (I have all of Kiowa County, I just haven't got it all in Maprika yet).

If you use MAPRIKA, search for "robby4570" as a keyword, and you'll find the first upload. I am working on a second right now, should have it uploaded in a couple days...
