Butler, New Jersey began in 1881 when a New York businessman purchased an already-existing hard rubber manufacturing company – and his name was Richard Butler. After the establishment of the local post office, construction for a larger railroad and town train station took off, eventually taking the name Butler Railroad Station. Today, it serves as a museum.
