==History==
The Delaware County area was first settled by Quakers who came to Pennsylvania by the Delaware River on September 29, 1683. The ship they used was called the ''Endeavor.'' Marple Township was originally settled in 1684 and was recognized as a township in the same year. The original spelling of the township was Marpool, most likely named after the village of Marpoole in Cheshire, England.
One of the settlers that arrived on the ''Endeavor'' was Thomas Massey. He obtained a 300-acre plantation in the township from William Penn. The house he built on the land is still preserved today, as well as some of its surrounding gardens.
Marple became a first class township in 1961.
