Cinnaminson Wedding

Cinnaminson Township is a Township in Burlington County, New Jersey, United States. Cinnaminson Township borders the Delaware River, and is an eastern suburb of Philadelphia. As of the United States 2000 Census, the township population was 14,595.

Cinnaminson includes within its boundaries the confluence point of Latitude 75 degrees West and Longitude 40 degrees North, one of only four such confluence points in New Jersey. The intersection of these two points is on the 7th Fairway of the Riverton Country Club Golf Course, less than mile from the Municipal Building[1].

Cinnaminson was formed by resolution in 1860 from a section of Chester Township. Part of this resolution reads, "The inhabitants of the township of Chester having become so numerous that it is impracticable for them to meet with convenience and good order in one assembly...the Township shall be divided." Some of the early notable families included the Parrys and Lippencotts.

The name "Cinnaminson" derives from the Lenni Lenape Indian word "Senamensing," which means "sweet water." The word is a reference to a group of sugar maple trees that once grew along the Delaware River within what is now Cinnaminson.
