Map no generating for new areas

First, I don't know if I have the right version. The game doesn't tell me what version it is.

My issue is that I am not able to create maps of new areas of my world. I will move off of the first maps edge significantly, make a new blank map, and open it, however it regenerates the original map showing me completely off the maps edge and will not update. I've tried putting my original map in a chest, going to the middle of a new area blindly, and opening up the new map hoping that it will generate the area that I'm in, but it does not it duplicates map # 0.
