2020 Census: 444 residents · ZIP Code: 08353
Shiloh is one of Cumberland County’s smallest municipalities. Its village pattern is compact, but the community has an unusually long and well-documented history tied to Seventh Day Baptist settlement, agriculture and the crossroads once known as Cohansey Corners.
Shiloh’s official Census count.
Seventh Day Baptist families established the settlement that became Shiloh.
Shiloh became an independent Cumberland County municipality.
In 1705, Robert Ayars purchased roughly 3,000 acres in the area for his family. His Sabbath-keeping Baptist descendants helped establish the settlement known as Cohansey Corners. A Seventh Day Baptist meeting house was built in 1738, beginning a religious and community tradition that remains visible in Shiloh today.
When Cumberland County was formed in 1748, the village was divided between Hopewell and Stow Creek townships. Shiloh was incorporated as its own borough in 1929.
