About Little Silver, NJ

Prior to the settlement of Europeans, the area that is now Little Silver was inhabited by the Navesink Native Americans. There are several tales of how Little Silver received its name. In one, brothers Joseph and Peter Parker, who settled in this area in 1667 and owned land bounded by Parker's Creek on the south and Little Silver Creek on the north, named their holdings "Little Silver" after their father's (George Parker) estate in Portsmouth, Rhode Island. The original Parker Homestead, dating to 1725 and one of the state's oldest, was acquired by the borough and is undergoing renovation. Other explanations for the derivation of the name are the payment to Native Americans for purchase of the land and the placid appearance of the water.
