1955 Map of Mooresville East

About this map

The White River carves a winding path through the center of this Morgan County landscape, defining the character of the terrain between Mooresville and Waverly. In the mid-1950s, the area remained largely agrarian, with small settlements like Bethany and Brooklyn positioned near the western hills. The map captures a transition in local infrastructure, showing the Pennsylvania railroad line running parallel to the river valley, a lifeline for local industry evidenced by the Kilns near the southern boundary.
