Montville, Township in Morris County, New Jersey
Montville is a township in Morris County comprising three distinct communities: the central township area, Pine Brook, and Towaco. Each section has its own character, with residential neighborhoods, local businesses, and public spaces distributed throughout the municipality.
Dutch settlers founded the area in 1710, initially calling it Uyle-Kill. During the American Revolutionary War, the region served as a key passage for military movements and strategic operations in the northeastern colonies.
