History
The settlement was founded in the early part of the 18th century, and became known as Unionville around 1820. According to tradition, the name “Unionville” was applied to the place after a land dispute had been settled. Unionville was incorporated as a village in 1871. Once an important economic zone in the area, its decline followed the changes in transportation which favored other locations: the Middletown and Unionville Railroad shuttled agricultural products (especially milk) as well as high school students in the first half of the 20th century. By World War II, however, improved roads and a high school built far away from the train tracks led to the end of these services; passenger service on the line ended in 1968.
