Cadell County is one of the 141 cadastral divisions of New South Wales. It contains the city of Moama.
Cadell County was named in honour of Francis Cadell (1822–1879), river navigator and entrepreneur[1] who in 1852, in preparation for the launch of his steamer service, explored the Murray River in a canvas boat, travelling 1,300 miles (2,100 km) downstream from Swan Hill.[2]
