Despite its name, Hackensack Township did not encompass the present-day City Of Hackensack , which was within New Barbadoes Township on the west side of the Hackensack River . As originally constituted, the Township included portions of present day Bergen County between the Hudson River on the west, the Hackensack River to the west, northward to the boundary with New York and south to the border with current Hudson County . In 1775, Harrington Township was formed by royal charter from the northern portions of both New Barbadoes Township and Hackensack Township. On March 22 , 1871 , Hackensack Township was subdivided into three new Townships, each stretching from the Hudson River on the west to the Hackensack River in the east:
With the creation of these three new Townships, Hackensack Township was dissolved that same day, March 22 , 1871 . SOURCES
