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. 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 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. Origin of the name Cherry Hill was a 19th - century farm on Kaighn Avenue ( Route 38 ), owned by Abraham Browning. The farm property later became the Cherry Hill Inn ( now a AMC Theatres Cherry Hill 24 movie theater complex ), as well as an office campus ( now a shopping center with big - box retailers ), and today 's Cherry Hill Towers and Cherry Hill Estates housing developments. Adding to the prevalence of the Cherry Hill name, developer Eugene Mori branded several properties using the name, including the Cherry Hill Inn and Cherry Hill Lodge hotels, Cherry Hill Apartments, and Cherry Hill Estates. Cherry Hill Shopping Center ( now known as Cherry Hill Mall ) opened in 1961 opposite the old Cherry Hill Farm site, featuring 75 stores within a single enclosed space. 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. The name `` Cherry Hill '' was chosen by the township 's citizens in a non-binding referendum in 1961, and was officially adopted November 7, 1961. Geography According to the United States Census Bureau, the township had a total area of 24.244 square miles ( 62.792 km ), including 24.097 square miles ( 62.410 km ) of land and 0.147 square miles ( 0.382 km ) of water ( 0.61 % ), Ashland ( 2010 population of 8,302 ), Barclay ( 4,428 ), Cherry Hill Mall ( 14,171 ), Ellisburg ( 4,413 ), Golden Triangle ( 4,145 ), Greentree ( 11,367 ), Kingston Estates ( 5,685 ) and Springdale ( 14,518 ) are unincorporated communities and census - designated places ( CDPs ) located within the township.

Government Local government Created as Delaware Township in 1844, the community was first governed by a Township Committee. On May 19, 1951, the citizens adopted, in a special election, a Walsh Act Commission form of government, consisting of a three - member Board of Commissioners. In 1962, the Township 's population passed the 30,000 mark and two additional Commissioners were elected. Following a study made by a Citizen 's Advisory Committee, a special election was held in 1962. The township voted to change its form of government to the Council - Manager Plan A under the Faulkner Act. Five Council members were elected at - large in a May election to serve concurrent four - year terms. The Council members elected one of their own as Mayor, and a Township Manager served as the Chief Administrator of the Township. By 1975, after a Charter Study Commission report and the passage of a ballot referendum, the township adopted the Council - Manager Plan B form of government. Two features of the government were changed : council members were to be elected every two years for overlapping terms of four years and the number of Council members would increase from five to seven. After a 1981 referendum, the government changed yet again, this time to a Mayor - Council Plan B form of government. A full - time ' strong ' mayor was elected directly by the people and seven Council members were elected at - large for staggered four - year terms, with either three or four seats up for election every other year. After the passage of a ballot referendum in November 1986, voting or the mayor and council was shifted from a non-partisan May election to a partisan November election.
