Rowland's Mills or Rowland Mills is an unincorporated community located on the western edge of Readington Township in Hunterdon County, New Jersey, United States.〔(Locality Search ), State of New Jersey. Accessed January 31, 2015.〕 In 1760, a gristmill was erected at this site, followed by a sawmill around the time of the American Revolutionary War.〔Hunter Research, Inc. ("Deserted Village of Rowland’s Mills, Readington Township, Hunterdon County" ), ''Council for Northeast Historical Archaeology Newsletter'', No. 65, October 2006. Accessed December 14, 2009.〕 A hamlet grew up around the mill complex in the early 19th century along the road connecting Flemington and Clinton. In 1838, Rynear Rowland (1798-1862〔(1862 Obituaries )〕), whom the village was later named after, purchased the mills. At its peak the settlement had a store, a blacksmith shop owned by Oliver Hart Ewing and numerous houses. In the later part of the 19th century the community diminished in size and was all but abandoned in the 1920s when the road through it was widened and designated as State Route 30, the predecessor of modern New Jersey Route 31. ==References==
