I have nothing to offer viz mapping software.

My sense of the question is that the issue is accurate digital
representation of older maps. In some ways this is a contradiction. Older
maps reflect the technology of the time and are inherently inaccurate by
today's standards. That is why it is so hard, nay impossible, to
reconcile old deeds and plats on modern maps such as USGS quad maps.
