Client: The Newberry Library

ChicagoAncestors.org allows users to "discover the past by address." Historical records culled from several organizations, including the Newberry Library, Chicago Historical Society, as well as hundreds of churches and schools, are viewed using an interactive mashup-style Google Map. Information about people, places, and events through Chicago, including user-submitted locations and photographs, can be viewed in their proper historical and geographical contexts.
