Established in 1741, it was named after County Antrim in Northern Ireland. The area boasts a rich history featuring a prehistoric archeological site, early American pioneering, French and Indian War activity, participation in the Underground Railroad, and serving as a thoroughfare for Southern troops on their way to and from Gettysburg in the Civil War. Though once encompassing all of Franklin County, Antrim Township is now 69.5 square miles governed by a Board of Supervisors comprised of 5 elected officials. The Supervisors, their staff and committees oversee transportation, parks, public sewer, water, stormwater, zoning, land planning and other projects to promote the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of Antrim Township and to promote economic development. Agriculture continues to dominate the area providing a rural atmosphere. Straddling Interstate-81 (with exits 1, 3, and 5) and being dissected by State Routes 11 and 16 has made Antrim Township an attractive location for residential and business growth.
