Online Highways Home > Vermont > Danville Danville is located in Caledonia County, nine miles west of St. Johnsbury in Vermont's Northeast Kingdom. It lies along Highway 2 near the Joes River and Joes Pond. Danville was settled in 1785 and chartered on October 31, 1786. Nearly 200 families were here by 1789. The town became known for manufacturing harnesses as well as lumbering and farming. Thaddeus Stevens, a famous abolitionist, was born in Danville. Today, Danville is a lovely New England village of approximately 1,980 residents. There is an annual August dowsers convention here. Dowsers use divining rods (forked sticks) to find water under the ground. The American Society of Dowsers national headquarters is just off the village green. The Danville Railroad Station, a historic site, is here as well as the Danville Morgan Horse Farm.
