Galloway Township, New Jeresey is located in Atlantic County. As of the United States 2000 Census, the township population was 31,209.

Galloway Township's first inhabitants were Lenni-Lenape Native Americans, who were followed by European settlers. During the American Revolutionary War, Galloway was the site of the Battle of Chestnut Neck (in what is now a part of Port Republic). Historians are uncertain of the source of Galloway Township's name. One theory is that is was named after an area known as Mull of Galloway in the region of Dumfries and Galloway in southern Scotland. An alternative derivation is that the Township was named for Joseph Galloway, a Loyalist delegate to the First Continental Congress in 1774, who was opposed to independence of the Thirteen colonies; however, given that opposition, that derivation seems unlikely.

The Township of Galloway was created by Royal Patent of King George III of England on April 4, 1774. At that time it was part of Old Gloucester County, and comprised what is now Hammonton, Mullica Township, Egg Harbor City, Port Republic, Brigantine, Atlantic City, and the northern portion of Absecon. Galloway Township was incorporated by the New Jersey Legislature on February 21, 1798. After becoming part of the newly-formed Atlantic County in 1837, portions of the township were taken to create Mullica Township (1838), Egg Harbor City (1858), Absecon town (1872), Brigantine Beach borough (now Brigantine city (1890) and Port Republic (1905).

Today, Galloway Township offers residents so much to do and see: day trips include the Towne of Smithville, the famous Atlantic City Boardwalk, Renault Winery, Wharton State Forest, the Somers Mansion, and Margate, home of Lucy the Elephant, a National Historic Landmark.
