There is a project that I created some years ago called Mark Twain's
America - it is a Google map with links to important sites in his life from
boyhood to his final resting place. This was "adopted" some years back by
the Mark Twain House & Museum in Hartford. You can find it at
https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=10qyYg8ExXw0yvx_wLm77U691HUU&hl=en_US&ll=36.92135148405688%2C-114.458686&z=3

For specifically New York Twain sites, I'd recommend Peter Salwen's article
the "Belle of New York" at http://www.salwen.com/mtbelle.html  Finally, I
am beginning a new project that charts the businesses located on Duane
Street in 1853 when young Sam got his first taste of New York. Details at
http://librariansonedge.blogspot.com/2016/10/a-double-barreled-detective-story.html
I know that there is at least one of Google map, but I don't have the
location for that right now.
