NEUTRAL
New Trenton
New Trenton, United States
Through this natural portal a great tide of immigrants first entered the Whitewater Valley. On May 25th, 1803 Benjamin McCarty made his first land entry on this site what would later become Franklin County. New Trenton, platted in 1816, was an important "point" on the old Whitewater Canal. Rockefeller and Manwarring Taverns were very popular in early 19th century. The Manwarring Tavern also served as a Methodist "meeting house" on Sundays.
