In Reply to: Historic Ports for my Shipwreck Map posted by Lara on June 09, 19100 at 13:55:06:
: Hi there....i'm hoping that somebody could point me in the direction of a list (or map) showing historic Canadian ports in the GL. I have easily found a list of the major ports that are used today, but am having trouble finding ports of yesterday. I'm a cartography student producing a large poster-map showing shipwrecks in the GL and would like to include Historic Ports on the map itself. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!

In doing research for our Lake Erie shipwrecks web site mt brother and I use an old commercial atlas from the 1920s. We were fortunate that this book just happened to be in the family. However, larger libraries may have historic maps. I suspect maps from say every 50 years ought to suffice for your purposes.
