History


The village was founded in the 18th century and named for founding father Ashbel Green. One of the earliest houses in the village is that of Elias Boudinot, constructed in 1760 by one of George Washington's generals, William Alexander. The village center was largely created in 1800 by local farmer John Cockrem and his family, which ran a wagon-building company in town, and his son Philip built the local Methodist church and original post office. A new post office would be built during the Eisenhower presidency.




Geography


Green Village is in southern Morris County, mostly in the western part of Chatham Township, but extending into the eastern part of Harding Township. It is bordered to the northeast by the borough of Madison and to the west by unincorporated New Vernon. Morristown, the county seat, is 5 miles (8 km) to the north. The village is drained by Great Brook and its tributary Loantaka Brook, which flow southwest into the Great Swamp National Wildlife Refuge and thence to the Passaic River. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the Green Village CDP has a total area of 2.44 square miles (6.32 km2), of which 2.34 square miles (6.06 km2) are land and 0.10 square miles (0.26 km2), or 4.13%, are water.
Green Village has its own post office and fire department, as well as a plant nursery known as The Farm at Green Village, a deli, a Methodist church, and a gas station. Additionally, a number of residents maintain farms and sell produce (including pumpkins, tomatoes, watermelons), eggs, and firewood. Green Village principally consists of three streets, namely Green Village Road, which runs east to Madison and west to New Vernon; and Meyersville Road and Britten Road, which each run south to the Great Swamp. The eastern end of Woodland Road is within the Green Village CDP and ZIP Code area, while the remainder is within the New Vernon CDP and ZIP Code area.
