The county's real name is Richmond 2 The county's real name is Hillsborough http://www.hillsboroughcountynh.org/ 3. The county's real name is Miami-Dade http://miamidade.gov/ However do you really want the county's real name or the name given on the County Hunters Award list? I think the later and that would give you one source for all county names at http://www.countyhunter.com/counties.htm . So according to the keepers of the award the names are: 1. Richmond (formerly Staten Island) 2. Hillsboro 3. Miami-Dade The benefit of using the County Hunters name is if anyone complains you can just send them to their web site for a fix. 73, Art _______________________________________________ DXBase Reflector - Please visit us on the web at www.dxbase.com - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - To UNSUBSCRIBE please visit: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dxbase
