History

Mendham Township Farmers Market

The township was originally formed on March 29, 1749, from portions of Hanover Township, Morris Township and Roxbury Township. After the Revolutionary War, on February 21, 1798, the township was incorporated by the Township Act of 1798 of the New Jersey Legislature as one of the state's initial group of 104 townships. Portions of the township were taken to create Randolph Township on January 1, 1806. Mendham Borough became an independent municipality when it was formed on May 15, 1906.[20]

The township may be named for Mendham, Suffolk, England,[21][22] or the name may derive from the Native American word mendom (meaning "raspberry") or for an Earl of Mendham.[23][24]
