Sturdy pioneer families were widely scattered over the territory, and their first co-operated endeavor was the building of the First Presbyterian Church of Blackwoodtown in 1751,- but rebuilt since then. In 1881 the name Blackwoodtown was changed to Blackwood. It is a part of Glou- cester Township. BLENHEIM, another town on the Black Horse Pike, was at one time called Mechanics- ville. The Black Horse Pike, then a gravel road, was a toll road. There was a famous Indian trail that cut through the center of Blenheim and was used for long distance traveling. It was called Kings Trail and ran into what is now known as Kings Highway, The first school was a small log cabin that sat on the side of a hill. When the rail- road track was laid, the name was changed to Blenheim. There is a cemetery in the town with some dates as early as 1720. In 1888 there was a small group of houses east of the Black Horse Pike known as the town of Hedding. West of the Pike was the farm of Isaac Bell. The Reading Railroad, wishing to extend the line to Grenloch, secured permission from Isaac Bell to cut through his farm. To honor him they called the depot Bellmont. Through a clerical error in recording this name it became known as BELLMAWR. Bellmawr was then a part of Centre Township. In 1926 it was incorporated into a borough, and Mr. Fred Collett was elected the first mayor. Mr. Nathan Thomas is the present mayor. The problem of adjusting the curriculum of ,i. ini- , , Haddon Heights High School to meet the needs , of the students from all these commuting districts is not an easy task. But it is our belief that this problem has been handled with expert efficiency, f 1 and as a proof of this, we need only to point out the smoothness with which our high school is operated.
