    Re: New Castle De Map

    It's my understanding that New Castle in 1700 was in Pennsylvania, but became part of Delaware in 1702.
    I'd start a similar map quest by asking the New Castle Historical Society:
    32 East 3rd Street New Castle, DE 19720
    (302) 322-2794
    Don.......
    PS: New Castle was originally settled by the Dutch West India Company in 1651, under the leadership of Peter Stuyvesant, but it doesn't sound like you wish to go back that far. Anything particular you're looking for and wish to share?
