The township was founded in 1774 from parts of several other towns including Egg Harbor township (which, at the time, was part of neighboring Gloucester County, NJ), Mullica Township, Egg Harbor City, Absecon, Brigantine and Port Republic
The Lenape Native Americans settled in Galloway Township and remained for thousands of years; they remained strong and tied to their land even as the Europeans were invading.
