<div id="ygrps-yiv-514576152">At the risk of posting this twice (but either Yahoo is exceptionally <br/>
slow today, or my previous posting has been drowned in the already <br/>
mythical Brendan waves...): I think many remains of the old German <br/>
boundaries are still there. One example is http://www.aumann-<br/>
net.de/grlhbch/hanstein.html (boundary Kingdom of Hanover - Gr. Duchy <br/>
of Oldenburg. Another is <br/>
http://www.ni.schule.de/~pohl/emigration/wellmann/d-grenze.htm <br/>
(boundary Kingdom of Hanover - Kingdom of Prussia).<br/>

&gt; i often wonder what traces remain in Germany of the hundreds of <br/>
former<br/>
&gt; states.  how many Germans know what count claimed the ground under <br/>
their<br/>
&gt; house two hundred years ago?  can one find this out in the typical <br/>
town<br/>
&gt; library?  do any old boundary-markers remain?<br/>
