The community was named for its location at the confluence of the upper and lower branches of the river.[3] Changewater has a post office with ZIP code 07831, which opened on September 26, 1859.[4][5] HistoryOne of the early iron furnaces in the county—known as the Changewater Forge—was established here in the mid-1700s by Mark Thomson.[3] In 1843, members of a local family—the Castner's—were murdered during an apparent robbery. The crime attracted widespread publicity, and in 1845, two men were convicted and hanged at the Warren County Court House.[3][6] During the 1800s, a number of industries were attempted in Changewater, including a tannery, woolen factory, flouring mill, picture frame factory, snuff factory, and distillery.[3] In 1874, the village consisted of a looking glass and picture framing factory, a store and post office, a grist mill, and eight residences.[3] By 1918, Changewater had a population of 200, and the A. T. Skerry woolen mill was its only industry.[3] {{Clear|left}}References1. ^1 {{cite gnis|875365|Changewater}} {{Warren County, New Jersey}}2. ^Locality Search, State of New Jersey.
