==History==
It is named after Nottinghamshire, England.〔http://www.risingsunmd.org/department/division.php?fDD=19-68〕 The township was originally disputed territory between Pennsylvania and Maryland, resolved eventually by the Mason–Dixon line.〔 Half of the current township also formed part of the northern section of Susquehanna Manor later known as New Connaught, a large settlement tract established by Maryland and named after the western province of Connacht in Ireland that courted Irish settlement into the area.〔
