The first European settlers to build a new home for themselves in Bayonne, New Jersey, were from Bayonne, France.

In 1861, Bayonne was incorporated as a township, and then in 1869, it was incorporated as a full-blown city. It has been a hotbed for industry and commerce ever since. Today, there are just over 63,000 people who make their homes here.
