Millville is a town in Worcester County, Massachusetts, United States.
[2] Millville was first settled in 1662, and officially incorporated in 1916 by division from Blackstone, Massachusetts (which had itself originally been part of Mendon).
In the first two decades of the 20th century, baseball great Gabby Hartnett, born in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, grew up in Millville, played youth baseball in the Blackstone Valley League, and played for the Chicago Cubs, beginning in 1922.
[3] It has recently been discovered that the town's population in the early 1900s until around 1980 was almost 98% Irish Catholic.
15.5% of all households were made up of individuals, and 5.9% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older.
High schoolers in grades 9-12 are also eligible to attend a vocational school, Blackstone Valley Regional Vocational Technical High School.
