About Lumberton Township, New Jersey

Named for the abundance of pine trees and several local sawmills dotting this area, Lumberton Township was originally the land of the Lenni-Lenape Indians before Quakers settled the area in the late 1600s. In the days leading up to the Civil War, many of the locals here were pro-Abolition, and one of the historic homes in the area is remembered as a stop on the Underground Railroad with a fake well where runaway slaves could hide. Today, Lumberton Township's 13,000 residents enjoy a semi-rural lifestyle with abundant opportunities nearby for outdoor recreation such as golf, hiking, fishing, and equestrian.
