Accessed September 4, 2014.〕 |website = |footnotes = }} Haddonfield is a borough located in Camden County, New Jersey, United States. As of the 2010 United States Census, the borough had a total population of 11,593,〔〔〔 reflecting a decline of 66 (-0.6%) from the 11,659 counted in the 2000 Census, which had in turn increased by 31 (+0.3%) from the 11,628 counted in the 1990 Census.〔(Table 7. Population for the Counties and Municipalities in New Jersey: 1990, 2000 and 2010 ), New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development, February 2011. Accessed October 4, 2012.〕 Haddonfield was incorporated by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on April 6, 1875, within portions of Haddon Township following a referendum on the same day. The borough became an independent municipality in 1894.〔Snyder, John P. (''The Story of New Jersey's Civil Boundaries: 1606-1968'' ), Bureau of Geology and Topography; Trenton, New Jersey; 1969. p. 106. Accessed April 26, 2012.〕 The borough was named for Elizabeth Haddon, an early settler of the area.〔Hutchinson, Viola L. (''The Origin of New Jersey Place Names'' ), New Jersey Public Library Commission, May 1945. Accessed August 31, 2015.〕〔Gannett, Henry. (''The Origin of Certain Place Names in the United States'' ), p. 146. United States Government Printing Office, 1905. Accessed August 31, 2015.〕 == History == The Haddonfield area was occupied by Lenni Lenape Native Americans. The Lenape disappeared from the local area when settlers arrived. Arrowheads and pottery shards have been found by residents by the banks of the Cooper River, hinting that there was a Native American settlement in Haddonfield at one point in time. On October 23, 1682, Francis Collins, an English Quaker and a bricklayer by trade, became the first settler within the boundaries of what today is Haddonfield. Collins soon built a house, "Mountwell," on a tract of 400 acres. Haddonfield was further developed by Elizabeth Haddon (1680–1762), whose Quaker father, John Haddon, bought a tract of land in the English colony of West Jersey to escape religious persecution. Elizabeth set sail alone from Southwark, England to the New World in 1701. Shortly after her arrival, she made a marriage proposal to John Estaugh, a Quaker minister, and they were married in 1702. The town was named for John Haddon, though he never came to America.〔Kaplan, Melanie D. G. ("Escapes: Haddonfield, N.J., still prohibits liquor sales" ), ''The Washington Post'', November 4, 2009. Accessed March 18, 2015. "But you'd have a hard time using your cents or pence to buy a drink here at the Indian King Tavern -- or anywhere in town, for that matter. The Borough of Haddonfield -- like 36 other Jersey towns -- is dry. The Indian King was one of the last places to sell alcohol before the town banned liquor. Since 1873, residents of this South Jersey town have bought their spirits in the next burg over and consumed it at home or, more recently, at BYOB restaurants."〕 The Indian King Tavern, built in 1750, played a significant role in the American Revolutionary War. During that war, the New Jersey Legislature met there, avoiding British forces, and in 1777, declared New Jersey to be an independent state. Today the tavern is a state historical site and museum.〔〔("Haddonfield: Quaker roots run deep" ), ''Courier-Post'', October 19, 2006. Accessed June 28, 2007. "In 1777, as armies devastated Trenton during the Revolution, the Assembly reconvened in the Indian King Tavern in Haddonfield and passed legislation creating an independent state.... The Quakers' strong influence led to the banning of alcohol in 1873—a ban that still stands."〕 Nevertheless, since 1873, Haddonfield has been a dry town where alcohol cannot be sold.〔〔New Jersey Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control. New Jersey ABC list of dry towns (May 1, 2013)〕〔Giordano, Rita. ("More towns catching liquor-license buzz; Moorestown considers ending its dry spell" ), ''The Philadelphia Inquirer'', June 24, 2007. Accessed February 16, 2014.〕 Haddonfield is a significant historic paleontology site. In 1838, William Estaugh Hopkins uncovered large bones in a marl pit in which he was digging. Hopkins displayed the bones at his home, Birdwood; and these bones sparked the interest of a visitor, William Foulke. In 1858, Foulke dug from the marl pit the first full skeleton of a dinosaur found in North America, ''Hadrosaurus foulkii''. The skeleton was assembled in 1868 and is still displayed at Philadelphia Academy of Natural Sciences. A replica of "Haddy" stands in the center of town.〔 In 1875, Haddonfield became the first community to secede from Haddon Township and become a self-governing borough.〔 Haddonfield is noted for its historic homes, quaint shops, and legions of lawyers. As a legal center for southern New Jersey, the town houses the offices of more than 390 attorneys. Haddonfield once was home to Symphony in C (formerly the Haddonfield Symphony), which is now based in Collingswood.〔(About ), Symphony in C. Accessed April 26, 2012. "The Haddonfield Symphony began in 1952 as a community orchestra allowing amateur musicians to pursue their love of music by performing for the Haddonfield and southern New Jersey community and made its debut performance in January 1954 under Music Director Guido Terranova."〕 Haddonfield is home to the second oldest volunteer fire company in continuous service in the United States. Haddon Fire Company No. 1 was established as Friendship Fire Company on March 8, 1764, by 26 townsmen. Each member was to furnish two leather buckets while the company supplied six ladders and three fire hooks.〔(About ), Haddon Fire Co. #1. Accessed September 22, 2014.〕 In 1971, Haddonfield became the second municipality in New Jersey (after Cape May) to establish a historic preservation district.〔Cataldo, Adam L.; and Hagenmayer, S. Joseph. ("A Leader For Preservation In Haddonfield Dies At 82 Now Described As A Visionary, Joan L. Aiken Organized A Pioneering Effort To Save The Borough's Historic Architecture." ), ''The Philadelphia Inquirer'', July 11, 2000. Accessed May 13, 2013. "Voters approved the historic-district ordinance in 1971, making Haddonfield, after Cape May, the state's second historic district."〕 In keeping with the historic appearance of the borough, some candidates for commissioner distribute colored ribbons to their supporters instead of yard signs. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Haddonfield, New Jersey」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
