    Welcome to the Township ofHamilton.

    Incorporated on Feb. 5, 1813,we recently celebrated our200th birthday. At 115 squaremiles, we are proud to be thestates largest municipality. Thehistoric village of Mays Landing,located in the township, has alsohad the distinction of being thecounty seat of Atlantic Countysince 1837.

    Our 27,000 residents and vis-itors enjoy a unique mix of ruralforests, natural resources, bus-tling suburbs and shopping ar-eas and quaint Main Street USAdowntown area.

    Our origins are directly tied tothe Great Egg Harbor River andits tributaries. George May, afterwhom the village of Mays Land-

    ing was named, built a shipyardand trading post near BabcockCreek in 1756. By the mid-19thcentury the shipbuilding indus-try in Mays Landing reached itsheight.

    From 1830 to 1880, more than200 vessels were built along theGreat Egg Harbor River withlumber from native forests andiron from Weymouth foundries.Half of them were produced inMays Landing. But by the end ofcentury, wood shipbuilding be-gan to disappear due to the lackof suitable timber, and iron wassubstituted in hull construction.

    Today we are the home of theOakcrest Falcons, Atlantic CapeCommunity College, AtlanticCounty Institute of Technology,

    Atlantic County Justice Facility, Atlantic County Library, HamiltonMall, Hamilton Commons, Con-sumer Square, Industrial Park,

    roadside farm markets, locallyowned restaurants and shops,and much more.

    To accommodate the growth,numerous improvements havetaken place this year at Town-ship Hall. The meeting room,which doubles as one of thebusiest municipal courts in thecounty, is being completely ren-ovated. A parking lot has beenconstructed across the street toaccommodate the large numberof people attending court ses-sions. Interior hallways havebeen upgraded and a new secu-rity system installed.

    We are a diverse mix of oldfamilies continuing traditionshere and of new residents andfamilies starting new tradi-tions. Having raised my familyhere, I am proud to serve thecommunity I will always callhome.

    There is something speciaabout our town. I hope you wvisit, boat, walk, shop, eat, learnsupport, cheer and live in thTownship of Hamilton today anevery day.

    Hamilton enjoys diverse mix of established families,

    Mayor Lisa Jiampetti

    ing to the Food Shelf, a local foodpantry that supports area families.

    Kurtz said that every yearthey see people pulling out theirwallets to see where they payfor the train ride and other ac-tivities, and they are pleasantlysurprised to nd there is no fee.Local businesses have put thistogether so families can comeand enjoy a really good time andnot have to spend any money.They are really appreciative, hesaid.

    In 1993, city officials dedicat-ed a building to house the EggHarbor City Historical Society.The Roundhouse Museum, at533 London Ave., now housesa wealth of memorabilia that isa testament to the history of thecommunity.

    Information provided by theHistorical Society PresidentMark W. Maxwell gives an ideaas to what a visitor to the sitecan experience.

    The largest single item thatwas donated to the museumwas an Albrecht piano that hadbeen used by the Egg HarborCity school system in the PikeSchool, the Buffalo AvenueSchool and Hamilton Hall sinceat least 1935.

    A large collection of historicitems, photographs, doll fur-niture, clothing and odd itemssuch as a phrenology head andan 1868 clove apple came fromHouston, Texas. The collectionbelonged to the Mather andOhnmeiss families.

    A collection of items was do-nated by the C. Raymond Kearsfamily, many pieces of whichwere stored away by MyrtleKears after the centennial cel-ebration of 1955. Many of the

    pieces can be recognized inphotographs of the first Egg Har-bor City Historical Museum thatwas located in the Lafayette FireHall. Of great interest are themany school photographs thatidentified many of the childrenand teachers, which helped datesome of the photos.

    Members and nonmembershave donated photographs andother small items. One photo-graph shows the original build-ing used for worship by the Em-manuel Congregational Churchon the southern corner of Lon-don Avenue and the White HorsePike. Originally built about 1858,it was called the Molding Build-ing, which was probably a car-pentry shop that produced thevarious decorative chair, ceilingand door moldings used in the

    citys early houses. It was laterowned by John Schwingham-mer, one of the early mayors ofEgg Harbor City. Sometime after1903 it was used by the churchuntil its brick building was erect-ed at Liverpool Avenue and theWhite Horse Pike, which wasready for services about 1910.

    An impor tant event took placeat the museum June 14 this yearwhen a box that had been placedin the cornerstone of the formerFanny D. Rittenberg School was

    schools Class of 1971 werepresent for the ceremony, anx-ious to see the items placed in-side. Maxwell carefully removedthem one by one, due to theirdelicate nature.

    First out was a set of buildingplans for the school, then a mapof the city and a 1971 penny.Then came a copy of the SundayPress and the local Egg Harbor

    City News, as well as a programfrom the dedication ceremonand the contractors agreements

    Township historySettlements in the area known

    as Hamilton Township date fromthe early 1700s. These settlementswere in places like Mays Landing,Weymouth, Postville and Catawba.

The bulk ofthe townships area came fromEgg Harbor Township and a smallportion from Weymouth Township.When Atlantic County was createdin 1837, Mays Landing became thecounty seat. At 115 square miles,Hamilton is the largest municipalityby area in New Jersey.

    The population was 877 in 1821692 in 1900, and 26,500 in 2013

    The Great Egg Harbor River wadammed in 1846 to create LakLenape. Railroads came to tharea in 1870 and 1880, and phoneservice in 1902.

    The opening of the HamiltMall in 1987 was the beginning the township as a regional shopping area that now has more than3 million square feet of retail spac

    In March of this year, Annette Thomas almost died. Her health was slowly deteriorating, but she didnt realize it.Annette didnt have a regular primary care provider, so at the request of her daughter, she made an appointmentwith an AtlantiCare Primary Care Plus provider. And shes glad she did. Her Advanced Practice Nurse (APN), TerriRodino, discovered that Annettes blood pressure was dangerously high. Terri immediately sent her to the emergencydepartment at AtlantiCare, where they determined Annette had blockages in the left and right sides of her heart. Quitethe dramatic turn of eventsAnnette would ultimately require two stents. Months later, she feels like a new person.Shes healthy once again, and spends her days without any of the symptoms that plagued her before her emergency.No more shortness of breath, headaches or fatigue. She can keep up with her grandkids and their busy schedules

    all thanks to the coordinated services of AtlantiCare. Annette continues to see Terri for routine care, as well as hercardiologist for follow-up care. Shes even started referring her friends to AtlantiCare. Annette is indebted to Terri for thesupport she provided. Its like a miracle happened, she recalls warmly. Terri saved my life.
