[dropcap]T[\/dropcap]he chart below is part of what I have been working on that has taken\u00a0me from blogging. I have been chart crazy lately.\u00a0This is the start of my GPS\/UTM chart for Wetzel\u00a0County, West Virginia. The entries\u00a0below are for Center District. I went into Google Drive and made a spreadsheet for Wetzel County, giving each district a tab. I am excited about this project.<\/p>\n

\"\"If this experiment goes well I will be making a spreadsheet for all of the counties I research heavily in. I know this is a little OCD but I have found it very useful in getting a different perspective\u00a0on my family history. My next major step is to make a map of the locations I have\u00a0mapped out\u00a0in Adobe and have Photoshop layers for plat maps, historic land changes and more. This will give me an opportunity to see beyond\u00a0just GPS\/UTM or plat maps. I hope someone finds this article helpful. If this inspires you to map out your family this way or in another way let me know in the comments below!<\/p>\n
