Kingwood Township is one of the western townships of the County. It is shaped like a keystone or a wedge with the narrow end to the south. It was originally established around 1746 when it was separated from Bethlehem Township. Its present boundaries were established when Franklin was separated off in 1845 and when part was given to the Borough of Frenchtown in 1876.
