How did Milford come to be?

Portions of the original town were carved off over time: the town of Orange was chartered from northern and eastern Milford in 1822, and the Borough of Woodmont was incorporated from the southeastern portion in 1903. During the Revolutionary War the Boston Post Road section through town was blockaded by Continental forces and Fort Trumbull was built for defense.
