==History==
The community is located along the Musconetcong River between Pohatcong Mountain and Musconetcong Mountain, about a mile east of the Delaware River in a section of the Musconetcong Valley called the Musconetcong Gorge. The settlement was named for Philip and John Fein (often misspelled Fine by locals) who settled in the area from Germany. They built a dam and ran an oil mill, gristmill, sawmill, hotel and a store.〔Dale, Frank. ("Lower Musconetcong Valley; A Drive in the Country" ), Skylands Visitor. Accessed July 10, 2015.〕
The area was first built up as a permanent settlement due to the construction of Chelsea Forge, built in 1751,〔Wacker, Peter O. (''The Musconetcong Valley of New Jersey: A Historical Geography )], p. 152. New Brunswick, Rutgers University Press, 1968. Accessed July 10, 2015.〕 a charcoal-iron forge on the Musconetcong.〔(Finesvile Marker )〕 The forge helped to provide the Continental Army with weapons to defend Valley Forge. The Shank Brothers ran a ferry across the Delaware River from the point where the Musconetcong empties into it prior to 1800.〔(Musconetcong River )〕 The Fein gristmill burned and was later rebuilt as the Riegel Paper Corporation's paper mill〔Cummins, George Wyckoff. ("History of Pohatcong, NJ" ), from 'History of Warren County, NJ'', Lewis Historical Publishing Company, 1911. Accessed July 10, 2015.〕 and became the Taylor Stiles and Company knife factory. On October 7, 2009, the Finesville-Seigletown Historic District was listed on the New Jersey Register of Historic Places.
