Limerick Township History

The area that now comprises Limerick Township was first settled in the last decade of the 17th century by Welsh immigrants. Limerick Township was incorporated in 1726 and originally included the river crossing community of Royersford which was not established as a separate borough until 1879. Limerick’s early commercial growth resulted largely from the agricultural trade. The Village of Limerick at Ridge and Swamp Pikes was the Township’s first concentrated settlement.
