The area became known as Laurelton in the early 1900s with the opening of Laurelton Farms, a poultry operation run by the Park and Tilford Company.[3] A failed 1963 referendum would have renamed the entire Brick Township after Laurelton.[4] References1. ^{{gnis|877693}} {{Ocean County, New Jersey}}{{OceanCountyNJ-geo-stub}}2. ^Locality Search, State of New Jersey.
