Quinton was formally incorporated as a township by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on February 18, 1873, from portions of Upper Alloways Creek Township (now Alloway Township).[20] The township's name is said to derive from the name of an early settler, with both Tobias Quinton and Edward Quinton mentioned as possible namesakes.[21][22] In March 1778, during the American Revolutionary War, a minor battle was fought between British forces and local militia at Quinton's Bridge.[23]

It is a dry township, where alcohol cannot legally be sold.[24][25]
