Camden County was formed on March 13, 1844, from portions of Gloucester County.[7] The first courthouse, designed Samuel Sloan was completed circa 1853. A new building was built circa 1879 and demolished around 1904 to make way for the new one.[8] which replaced it. That neo-classical courthouse and was demolished in the 1950s.[8][9][10] At the time many county offices moved to Camden City Hall, where they remained into the 21st century.[11]
