What is now Maple Shade was originally formed as Chester Township on November 6, 1688, and was also known as Cropwell Township from June 5, 1690 through February 22, 1699.
Chester was incorporated as one of New Jersey's initial 104 townships by an Act of the New Jersey Legislature on February 21, 1798.
Portions of the township were taken to form Cinnaminson Township ( March 15, 1860 ) and Moorestown Township ( March 11, 1922 ).
The name was changed to Maple Shade township as of November 6, 1945, based on the results of a referendum passed that same day.
