Nee Jacksonville
How did Unionville get its name? A reader wanted to know, and try as I might I can't seem to find out; I'm hoping someone more knowledgeable will contact me (uvilleblogger@gmail.com). According to the East Marlborough Historic Commission's website, the town was originally called Jacksonville, after a prominent family of settlers, but the name was changed to Unionville in the early 1800s.
