The Mr. Local History Project (MLH) non-profit volunteer organization has been preserving and promoting local history in the Somerset Hills since the organization was established in 2019. The all-volunteer group started a wooden miniature keepsake program to share history, and artwork, that now has become part of New Jersey’s local history and helps Somerset Hills historic icons grow as part of the statewide New Jersey Historic Village Collection on Facebook.
