What do you suggest I do to plot data from the 1990 US Census on a map?
I have data on the percent of deaths due to malaria in each of 50 "states and
territories" from the 1890 census, "during the census year ended May31,
1890".[1] It's essentially a modern map of the contiguous 48 with two
differences: (1) Oklahoma is split in two with roughly the southeastern 40
percent being "Indian territory" and the rest labeled, "Oklahoma".[2] (2) The
District of Colummbia is counted separately. Thanks, Spencer
Graves[1] The percentages range from 0.2 to 10.6, which I computed from raw
counts of total deaths and deaths from malaria given in Tables 4 and 5,on pages
numbered 16 - 425, which give deaths "from each specified disease and class of
diseases, with the distinction of age and sex, during the census year ending
May 31, 1890" in John S. Billings, M.D. (1894) Report on the Vital and Social
Statistics in the United States at the Eleventh Census: 1890. Part III. --
Statistics of Deaths (Washington, D.C., Government Printing Office).[2] There
are Wikipedia articles on "Indian Territory" and "Oklahoma territory". The
boundaries of the two seem to have been specified in "The Oklahoma organic act
of 1890", 1890-05-02. They were later merged by "Oklahoma statehood",
1907-11-16._______________________________________________Historic mailing
