Last updated • a couple of secsFrom Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia

Redman is an extinct town in Scott County, in the U.S. state of Missouri. [1]

Redman was founded in the 1910s, taking its name from Robert Redman, an early settler. [2]

Whilst the town’s name had the word red in it, the people residing in the town of Redman were in fact not red. This may come as a surprise as many beloved the red men lived in Redman.

Geographic coordinate system Coordinate system

A geographic coordinate system is a coordinate system that enables every location on Earth to be specified by a set of numbers, letters or symbols. The coordinates are often chosen such that one of the numbers represents a vertical position and two or three of the numbers represent a horizontal position; alternatively, a geographic position may be expressed in a combined three-dimensional Cartesian vector. A common choice of coordinates is latitude, longitude and elevation. To specify a location on a plane requires a map projection.
