Cherry Hill, New Jersey

The area now known as Cherry Hill was originally settled by the Lenni-Lenape Native Americans before being displaced by the first settlers from England, namely Quaker followers of William Penn who arrived in the late 17th century.[http://www.cherryhill-nj.com/907/History-of-the-Farmstead History of the Farmstead] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151009195638/http://www.cherryhill-nj.com/907/History-of-the-Farmstead |date=October 9, 2015 }}, Cherry Hill Township. Accessed September 4, 2015. The first settlement was a small cluster of homes named Colestown, in the perimeters of what is now the Colestown Cemetery on the corner of Route 41 (King's Highway) and Church Road. The municipality was founded on February 25, 1844, in Gloucester County as Delaware Township from half of the area of Waterford Township and became part of Camden County at its creation some two weeks later on March 13, 1844.Snyder, John P.[https://www.state.nj.us/dep/njgs/enviroed/oldpubs/bulletin67.pdf The Story of New Jersey's Civil Boundaries: 1606-1968], Bureau of Geology and Topography; Trenton, New Jersey; 1969. p. 103 re Camden County, p. 104 re Cherry Hill Township, p. 105 re Delaware Township. Accessed March 14, 2012. Portions of the township were taken to form Stockton Township (February 23, 1859) and Merchantville (March 3, 1874). At its territorial peak, Delaware Township included all of modern-day Cherry Hill Township, as well as the neighborhood of North Camden and the municipalities of Merchantville and Pennsauken (including Petty's Island in the Delaware River).

The township's population grew rapidly after World War II and continued to increase until the 1980s. Today, the municipality's population is stable, with new development generally occurring in pockets of custom luxury houses or through the rehabilitation and adaptive reuse of commercial and industrial areas.

Cherry Hill was a 19th-century farm on Kaighn Avenue (Route 38), owned by Capt. Abraham M. Browning. The farm property, named Cherry Hill because of the cherry trees growing on the property, later became the Cherry Hill Inn (now an AMC Theatres Cherry Hill 24 movie theater complex), as well as an RCA office campus (now a shopping center with big-box retailers and Target), and today's Cherry Hill Towers and Cherry Hill Estates housing developments.[http://www.cherryhill-nj.com/DocumentCenter/Home/View/499 History], Cherry Hill Township. Accessed September 4, 2015.

Adding to the prevalence of the Cherry Hill name and leading to the official name change from Delaware Township to Cherry Hill Township, developer Eugene Mori branded several properties using the name, starting with the Cherry Hill Inn and Cherry Hill Lodge hotels.Cady, Steve.

"We, too, paid a visit to the Cherry Hill Shopping Center, which is an innovation in modern shopping. There are nearly 75 stores under one roof, lining an indoor mall where tropical plants grow and tropical birds play."

When the township sought a new post office, another New Jersey municipality in Hunterdon County was using the name Delaware Township. The United States Postal Service insisted on a name change, suggesting "Deltown". Delaware Township mayors Christian Weber and John Gilmour pursued public write-in campaigns to select possible titles and chose Cherry Hill from suggestions that included Chapel Hill, Cherry Valley and Delaware City.Staff. [https://www.proquest.com/docview/437008489 "Cherry Hill name originated from farm — not mall"], Courier-Post, November 28, 2003. Accessed August 12, 2013. "The postal service would not use the word 'township' in a mailing address, and several other municipalities and communities in the state also were named Delaware.... The Cherry Hill post office, at the Ellisburg Circle, was established in 1961 and made the name official. Other names under consideration included Cherry Valley, Delaware City and Chapel Hill." The name "Cherry Hill" was chosen by the township's citizens in a non-binding referendum in 1961 and was officially adopted on November 7, 1961.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the township had a total area of 24.20 square miles (62.67 km²), including 24.07 square miles (62.35 km²) of land and 0.12 square miles (0.32 km²) of water (0.51%).
