<div id="ygrps-yiv-1832052526">European place names are dime a dozen in New York <br/>
State as well as in many of the other States.  I <br/>
live in Lewis County, NY, a large but relatively <br/>
unpopulated county.  Within a 20 mile radius here<br/>
are some town and villages that surround Beaver <br/>

Naumburg, New Bremen, Port Leyden and Turin.<br/>

There are always odd concentrations of names.  To find<br/>
odd names all over the United States, I urge you to<br/>
look at the book &quot;All over the Map&quot; and its sequel. <br/>
By the way, my college and nearby has a concentration<br/>
of Roman (mixed with a few greek, I believe) names. <br/>
There are Homer, Ithaca, Romulus, Ulysses, Rome etc,<br/>
not to exclude Syracuse.  I am wondering if Binghamton<br/>
is a Roman name or not.<br/>
By the way, the four postal cities of Queens are the<br/>
cities of Queens before they joined.  That happened<br/>
before Queens ended up joining NYC.<br/>
Also, I have a question to whoever lives in Fairfax<br/>
county (forgive me for forgetting who).  I was looking<br/>
at the Fairfax orthophoto site<br/>
<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.co.fairfax.va.us/scripts/esrimap.dll?name=ortho2&cmd=init">http://www.co.fairfax.va.us/scripts/esrimap.dll?name=ortho2&cmd=init</a><br/>
and noticed they show a boundary within Fairfax City. <br/>
Though the site do show other non-county boundaries,<br/>
my curiosity was raised.  I looked at an Atlas I<br/>
borrowed from the library and it seems like some<br/>
County courthouses are in there.  So, what&#39;s the deal?<br/>
 Is it county buildings which are outside the county<br/>
as Fairfax City is separate or is it an enclave.<br/>
