Warwick Township
In 1729, Lancaster County, named after the English Shire (county) of Lancaster, became the fourth division of Pennsylvania, and seventeen townships of Lancaster County were created. Warwick Township was the eleventh township formed of the original seventeen townships of the county.
Warwick Township originally included the Townships of Warwick, Elizabeth, Clay and as well as the Borough of Lititz.
Richard Carter was the first settler in the area. He settled near the mouth of the Conestoga River in 1716. Carter was born in Warwickshire, England, and is given credit for naming the municipality Warwick.
All of the existing villages in Warwick Township had early beginnings as small settlements. Brief descriptions are presented.
