("More towns catching liquor-license buzz; Moorestown considers ending its dry spell" ), ''The Philadelphia Inquirer'', June 24, 2007. Accessed February 16, 2014.〕 ==History== Island Heights was incorporated as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on May 6, 1887, from portions of Dover Township (now Toms River Township), based on the results of a referendum held on November 18, 1886.〔Snyder, John P.

Accessed June 9, 2012.〕〔(Island Heights Borough ), Ocean County Historical Society. Accessed August 3, 2006.〕 Island Heights takes its name from two sources: it originally was an island. It is situated by a steep bluff rising above the Toms River.〔Hutchinson, Viola L. (''The Origin of New Jersey Place Names'' ), New Jersey Public Library Commission, May 1945. Accessed September 2, 2015.〕 It was originally known as Doctor Johnson's island, being included in the patent granted to him in 1680. In the century before the American Revolutionary War, it was known as Dillon's Island, probably for James Dillon, a prominent man in Toms River. The land was purchased by John Imlay of Allentown, who sold it in 1794 to Issac Gulick. In 1797, Gulick and his wife Abagail sold it to Abraham and George Parker. In 1799, the Parker brothers sold it to Abel Middleton of Upper Freehold Township.〔Salter, Edwin.
