1964 Map of New Haven

About this map

The Little Wabash River winds through the eastern portion of this map, defining the boundary between White and Gallatin counties. Along its banks and the neighboring bottomlands, unique drainage features like The Bayou and Goose Pond Swamp illustrate the flood-prone nature of this agricultural river valley. The landscape transitions from the flat river plains to the slightly more elevated Heralds Prairie, where numerous scattered Oil Wells and an established Oil Field point to the mid-century energy production of the region.
