History

Milltown was originally called Graggs Mill after the gristmill operated there by William Graggs. The name was then changed to Woodville, but that was soon changed to Milltown, since a Woodville already existed in Alabama.[2] A post office operated under the name Milltown from 1848 to 1955.[3]
