North Brunswick is a township in Middlesex County, New Jersey, United States. At the 2010 United States Census, the population was 40,742,〔〔〔 reflecting an increase of 4,455 (+12.3%) from the 36,287 counted in the 2000 Census, which had in turn increased by 5,000 (+16.0%) from the 31,287 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 17, 2012.〕 Located south of the city of New Brunswick, North Brunswick was named for its earlier-established neighbor, South Brunswick, New Jersey.〔(The Changing Landscape of North Brunswick ), Rutgers University. Accessed November 25, 2012. "The aptness of the name 'North Brunswick' has proven a puzzle to many modern historians, since the township is actually situated south of New Brunswick and west of East Brunswick. However, during the early part of the 19th century, the area was commonly referred to as the 'north ward of New Brunswick' and the township is located north of the earlier organized Township of South Brunswick."〕 The "Brunswick" comes from New Brunswick, which was named after the German city of Braunschweig (formerly translated in English as ''Brunswick'') or for the British royal House of Brunswick. North and South Brunswick, in turn, became the namesakes for East Brunswick.〔Hutchinson, Viola L. (''The Origin of New Jersey Place Names'' ), New Jersey Public Library Commission, May 1945. Accessed September 10, 2015.〕 Alternatively, the city gets its name from King George II of Great Britain, the Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg.〔Hutchinson, Viola L. (''The Origin of New Jersey Place Names'' ), New Jersey Public Library Commission, May 1945. Accessed September 9, 2015.〕〔Gannett, Henry. (''The Origin of Certain Place Names in the United States'' ), p. 223. United States Government Printing Office, 1905. Accessed September 9, 2015.〕 ==History== North Brunswick was first mentioned in Middlesex Freeholder Board minutes of February 28, 1779. North Brunswick Township was incorporated on February 21, 1798, as one of New Jersey's initial group of 104 townships by an act of the New Jersey Legislature.〔 Portions of the township have since separated into East Brunswick Township (February 28, 1860), and Milltown (January 29, 1889).〔Snyder, John P. (''The Story of New Jersey's Civil Boundaries: 1606-1968'' ), Bureau of Geology and Topography; Trenton, New Jersey; 1969. p. 172. Accessed January 19, 2012.〕
