Milltown (Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, USA)
Milltown, or Cedar Spring Mills, in Lower Allen Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, a few minutes' walk from the Susquehanna River, was a Mennonite (Mennonite Church) preaching point (Lancaster Conference) as late as 1884. Little is known about this place. Caspar and Adam Weber built a mill at this place in the late 1780s hence the name "Milltown."
