Burlington was formed as a "Towne" by the West Jersey proprietors, and was interrelated to Burlington City during its early days. Burlington was incorporated on February 21, 1798, by the Township Act of 1798 of the New Jersey Legislature as one of New Jersey's initial group of 104 townships. Burlington City was reincorporated within the township as of March 14, 1851, at which time a portion of the township was annexed to the city.[19] The township's name is a corruption of the English town of Bridlington.[20][21]
