Harford Township was formed January 1808. It was carved out of the North part of Nicholson Twp. (and also known as "Nine Partners"; it has changed very little). Susquehanna County was formed from Luzerne County in Oct 1812, and included 10 townships: Willingborough, Nicholson, Lawsville, Braintrim, Rush, Clifford, Bridgewater, New Milford, Harford and Harmony.
