RoadsideThoughts - A Gazetteer for the United States and Canada

With our gazetteer, we are collecting and organizing information about the current and historical communities of the United States and Canada. Starting with State, Province or Territory, you can drill-down to a desired community. Not only do we have general information, we are also assembling geographic information that is of interest to genealogists. For example, the distance and direction to communities in surrounding counties, cemeteries in the immediate area and a list of neighboring communities existing in 1895. Our Gazetteer is open to all without cost or registration.
