Early Beginnings . . .
Settlers pushed their way up the Schuylkill Valley and its principal tributaries into the historic “Oley Hills.” As settlement began above the “Oley Hills,” the new area was called the district between Oley and Colebrookdale. The settlements extended more and more, until the county commissioners (in order to ease the assessment of property) divided the area into two sections—“East District” and “West District.” Separate assessment lists of these two districts were kept for many years. In 1759 the “Eastern District” was established as District Township, and in 1781 the “Western District” was named Earl Township. 

Today District Township’s population is approximately 1500, and still remains true to the natural surrounding beauty of abundant woodlands, crisp streams, and historic farmlands.
