This large aerial photograph of Carrollton is from 1956. As usual, clicking on the little images gets you bigger images. I've tried to overlap them a little so nothing gets cut by an edge. The numbers
and labels are on the original, and I've put a key at the bottom of this
page explaining the numbers.
