Elaine,
    Thanks a lot for this link.  I have PE6 and it wouldn't open the file. 
I downloaded Irfanview and plugins that have links from the LOC site.  That 
worked great.
Thanks again
Jim

Tim, Here is the link. Click on the map and you'll have the option to 
download it. It comes in JPEG2000 compression, but I have been able to open 
it with Photoshop elements and convert into regular JPEG file. It's also 
(and easier) to just use the zoom viewer online to read details.

Although it's a digital image of 95 MBs, it is downloadable for free (with
high speed connection) from the Library of Congress. I've found it to
have all the detail we can possibly use!

I wish to purchase a large copy of the Fry and Jefferson map of Virginia
and
surrounding states. I need a copy that has sharp details, such as the
names
and places noted on the map.

I need the map to track several families and find this map to be an
excellent visual for this purpose.

Thanking everyone in advance for reading this message and for replying.
Poldi
