Book Description
East Brunswick Township has a rich and diverse history dating back to the earliest period of settlement in the late 1600s. Incorporated in 1860, the town developed a farm-to-market economy that would define it for much of its existence. The early 20th century witnessed the arrival of immigrants from Eastern Europe, and the postwar years saw a continued melding of cultural groups within the community. The town saw unprecedented growth in the mid-1900s, and a rural landscape was transformed into suburbia. The prosperity of this period increased the town's population, infrastructure, businesses, and commerce. A journey through history using historic images from both public and private collections, East Brunswick through the Years looks at the evolution of the town and the people that called East Brunswick home. Mark Nonestied has lived in East Brunswick for most of his life. In 1987 at the age of 15, he pedaled across town on his bicycle to the East Brunswick Museum to learn about the town's history. He never left, having served for almost 35 years as a volunteer researching and writing about the town's history. Ethan Reiss has also lived in East Brunswick for most of his life and developed a passion for the township's history at a young age. Reiss has taken to that passion by researching and sharing photographs of the town's past on social media. He currently serves on the board of trustees for the East Brunswick Museum.
