The Lenape native people who settled on the banks of the Rancocas Creek in what is present day Hainesport called the area Sandhickney.[20] The first European settlers were Quakers who arrived in 1677.[20]

The town was known as Long Bridge around the time of the American Revolutionary War. The name came from the long, wooden bridge that spanned the Rancocas Creek.[21] In 1778, the township was the site of a skirmish in which American rebels fired upon Hessian soldiers after they were halted by the dismantling of this bridge.[22][23]

The settlement became known as Haines' Port when Barclay Haines bought property in the area and established a wharf near his home on the Rancocas Creek[22][24] in 1848. By 1850,the name was shortened to Hainesport. Hainesport Township was incorporated as a township by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on March 12, 1924, from portions of Lumberton Township.[25]
