2013 Map of New Castle East

About this map

The Big Blue River and Little Blue River converge in this corner of Henry County, anchoring a landscape defined by small rail-stop settlements and agricultural heritage. The village of Mooreland sits at the northern edge, while the town of Millville and the stop at Pierson Station mark the passage of transportation corridors through the central and southern reaches. Local family histories are reflected in features such as the White Jersey Farm and named drainage works like Hauffman Ditch and Alten Ditch, which converted the natural wetlands into productive farmland.
