History
Multiple Native American mounds and other earthworks were once located on the site of Newtown.
Newtown was first settled in 1792 under the name of Mercersburg. The name was changed before the village incorporated in 1901. Still in existence today are the Odd Fellows' Cemetery Mound and the Perin Village Site, plus the Turpin site and the Hahn Field Archeological District just outside the village's boundaries.
Newtown withdrew from Anderson Township in the 1960s by forming a paper township.
