The Ireland-Hofer House was purchased on September 13, 1978, for $78,000.00 from the First National Bank of South Jersey. It was named for Dr. William R. Hofer and Emily G. Ireland. The building underwent many renovations, including the addition of a second and third story as well as a cellar. It is part of the Monroe Township Historical Society along with the Hall Street School, Reading Room, and the Radix Station, and it is open for school tours and private tours while being staffed by members of the historical society. Ruth White was the former Monroe Township Historical Society President in 2018.
