 | | Orange, including all the Oranges, was separated from Newark November 27, 1806. |
 | | Orange was incorporated as a town January 26, 1860, and almost immediately began to separate into smaller units, probably because the idea of police, fire, and street departments was not receiving popular support. |
 | | East Orange became a separate township on March 4, 1863, the first election being held in Timothy W. Mulford's wheelwright shop on the south side of Main Street, between Walnut and Burnet Streets, April 16 1863. |
