The area that is now Hopewell Township began as part of Burlington County – a county that dates back to 1681. In 1755, it became Hopewell Township by Royal Charter. In 1798, it was officially incorporated by the New Jersey Legislature. In 1838, the area became part of the newly-formed Mercer County. Finally, in 1890, a portion of the township became Pennington. Today, the borough of Pennington is still surrounded by Hopewell Township.
