Where are the following interstates, if they exist:

4,5,6,7,8,9,10

4 is in florida, 5 in ca/or/wa, 8 in san diego/az, and 10 is LosAngeles
to Louisiana.

While I'm on the subject, does anyone know how the US highways
(NOT THE INTERSTATES) are numbered. Does anyone have a map (esp.
of california) showing the US highways BUT NOT THE INTERSTATES
(e.g., prob. circa 1950).

Actually. I-10 goes all the way to Jacksonville.  Like the interstates, US
highways are given odd numbers if they are considered N-S routes, and even
numbers for E-W roads.  Unlike the interstates, the numbers increase as you
go south and west, so you have US 1 in Maine and Florida, US 2 in Maine and
Washington,  US 98 in Southern Florida and along the Gulf Coast,  And US 101
along the Pacific coast.  I don't think you'll find any US highways in Alaska
or Hawaii.
