Hello Beverly and daughter,

Per Marshall Lake's timeline this is what is posted at:
http://www.rootsweb.com/~njhunter/Timeline.htm

It seems Holland Township was formed late in the 1800's from Alexandria
Township, hope this helps some.

13 Apr 1874 Holland Twp formed from Alexandria Twp.

4 Mar 1878 Holland Twp restored to Alexandria Twp.

11 Mar 1879 Holland Twp reformed from Alexandria Twp.

15 Apr 1911 Milford Borough formed from Holland Twp.
