Kenilworth, New Jersey
Kenilworth is a borough in Union County, New Jersey, United States. As of the 2010 United States Census, the borough's population was 7,914,〔〔〔 reflecting an increase of 239 (+3.1%) from the 7,675 counted in the 2000 Census, which had in turn increased by 101 (+1.3%) from the 7,574 counted in the 1990 Census.〔(Table 7. Population for the Counties and Municipalities in New Jersey: 1990, 2000 and 2010 ), New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development, February 2011. Accessed June 18, 2012.〕
Kenilworth was incorporated as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on May 13, 1907, from portions of Cranford and Union Township, based on the results of a referendum held on June 18, 1907.〔Snyder, John P. (''The Story of New Jersey's Civil Boundaries: 1606-1968'' ), Bureau of Geology and Topography; Trenton, New Jersey; 1969. p. 239. Accessed June 18, 2012.〕
==History==
In the late 1890s, the New Orange Industrial Association purchased land in Cranford and Union that was subdivided into building lots. The firm brought in several large industries and lured Upsala College from Brooklyn with an offer of cash and free land for its campus.〔Boright, Dr. Walter E. ("Remembering when Kenilworth was a college town, Upsala College days revisited" ), ''Cranford Chronicle'', September 21, 2010. Accessed May 17, 2013. "Its first president was Rev. Lars Herman Beck. In 1898 it was lured to Kenilworth, then know as New Orange, by investors of the New Orange Industrial Association who offered the college 14 acres of free land on a hill at the top of No. 21st St. and a few thousand dollars."〕
Because New Orange was often confused with one of The Oranges in Essex County, the name "Kenilworth" was chosen when the borough was incorporated in 1907.〔(History ), Borough of Kenilworth. Accessed October 22, 2014〕 The name Kenilworth came from a literary society (The Kenilworth Club) which the businessmen belonged to. The Kenilworth Club was named in honor of the novel ''Kenilworth'' written in 1821 by Sir Walter Scott. The novel refers to England’s Kenilworth Castle located in Kenilworth, England.〔(Historian's Corner ), Borough of Kenilworth. Accessed October 22, 2014.〕〔Hutchinson, Viola L. (''The Origin of New Jersey Place Names'' ), New Jersey Public Library Commission, May 1945. Accessed September 2, 2015.〕
