To the List, I am still looking for a map with Oberscheden on it . I tried several web sites no luck. I've tried Map Quest. No luck,. Also bought several old maps from 1800's. It wasn't listed. Anyone know of any other resources that I can use? How small was the town? Thanks, Adele

I found it listed on current Germany maps. I typed Oberscheden in google
and got several maps.

Janice,
   
               I'm not sure but I think Obersheden is spelled Oberscheden with a c.
   
                The best old map I have found is the 1883 Ravenstein on line map. It has an incredible index. It's a little hard to navigate until you learn their grid system. Use the link below:
   
                http://www.library.wisc.edu/etext/ravenstein/home.html
   
  When you get there download the index page for
   
                Norddeicher Queller - Ostrowo (bei Argenau)
   
  On this page OberScheden is listed on map IV Page L4
   
  Return to the home page. Select Download maps.
   
  You will see a table that indicates page ranges for nine maps. Choose map 4 and F1-M5. Oberscheden is in grid square L 4. It is abbreviated Ob Scheden. It is near Gottingen.

Use mapquest.de not mapquest.com. Ort is town name.
