departments: administration city clerk law finance ... engineering History of New Brunswick In 1730, the City of New Brunswick was so named in honor of the English royal house of Brunswick and became a colonial center for trade and commerce. Rutgers University, founded in New Brunswick in 1766, was the eighth college to be founded in the colonies and the only state university to have existed before the Revolutionary War. New Brunswick figures prominently into the history of the American Revolution and early United States. With the turn of the century and the Industrial Revolution, the city again grew to become a center of industry and commerce, utilizing the Raritan River, the , and the rail lines. The city grew industrially and its preeminence as a pharmaceutical town dates to 1885 when the Johnson brothers moved their adhesive tape and gauze business to an old mill in New Brunswick. Johnson and Johnson is now the world's largest health care products manufacturer and retains its world headquarters in downtown New Brunswick. The manufacturing industry needed a workforce and to meet this need, many new Americans settled in New Brunswick. Because of this, the city today has a diverse population which can trace its origins to countries in Europe, Africa, South American, Central America and Asia. As these immigrants and their families settled in the city, New Brunswick's spirit of community was born. This spirit is evidenced throughout the city in our churches, schools, theaters, restaurants, social clubs, and business. The rich heritage of the people helps to make New Brunswick a great place to live, work and visit.

I thought it was time to record my own personal memories of the events which led up to the Internet in New Brunswick, and the some of the activities since it's beginnings here. These are just my recollections so far, so if you can enlighten me on more specific dates and correct my many errors, I would be gratefully appreciative. Also, please except my apologies for any people I have failed to mention over the years. Please send corrections to: Laurie Mersereau Dial in modems at UNB . 115 baud is the speed of the connections between IBM 2741 terminals and the IBM 370 mainframe running APL/360. Ken Iverson invented this quirky but lovable language, and had visited UNB the year before. The modems are acoustic couplers in fancy wood boxes with a hinged top on them. The 2741 was basically an IBM Selectric typewriter with an interchangeable "goof ball" element, packaged on small table. IBM uses 2741 terminals to connect local office to VM mainframe in Toronto. It uses an auto dialer because the mean time to failure is about 15 minutes.

days remaining until the next Grand Lodge Communication. Home Historian Index Recommended Reading Sign Register ... View Register THE GRAND HISTORIAN'S NOTEBOOK by R:W:Bro David "Bud" Gillrie THE GRAND LODGE THAT NEVER WAS Twice in the history of Freemasonry in New Brunswick there have been efforts to establish independence from authority outside the provincial boundaries. Various records and reports would indicate that the concept of a Grand Lodge for New Brunswick was proposed early in the provinces history, probably during the second decade of the 19th Century. The Lodge extant in New Brunswick at that time generally held their warrants by the delegated authority of the Provincial Grand Lodge of Nova Scotia, themselves authorized by the Grand Lodge of England. That is the "Grand Lodge of England According to the Old Institutions", the Grand Lodge called the "Antients"; which Masonic body was recognized by the Grand Lodge of Ireland, established in 1725 and that of the Grand Lodge of Scotland, formed in 1736. The fact that the lodges holding warrants within the province of New Brunswick were based on a single jurisdiction was a favourable consideration when looking at an independent grand lodge for the province.

History of New Brunswick View a Presentation We Gave in Class on the History of New Brunswick New Brunswick was named in 1784 in honor of British monarch, King George III. It used to be covered by tribes of the Algonquin. The Micmac welcomed the French under Demonts and Samuel De Champlain, when they first landed in New Brunswick in 1604.The Acadians were the first Europeans to settle in present day New Brunswick. History shows that the French explorers Sieur de Monts and Samuel De Champlain, arrived in the St. John River on June 24,1604,feast day of St. John the Baptist and named the river in the Saints honor. Charles La Tour, who was made lieutenant Governor in 1631 to 1635 and engaged in trade with the natives. Benedict Arnold, the American trader, lived here in 1787 to 1791. During the war of 1812, Martello Tower was built on Lancaster heights for harbor Defense; it is now a national historic site. I think that Saint John has taken great pride in its history and has kept many of the original buildings and homes of the early settlers, a walk down downtown Saint John is like taking a walk back in the day. King George III was also Duke of Brunswick and a member of the house of Hanover. The first settlers of New Brunswick were the Micmac Indians whose houses spread from Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island to the south coast of the Gaspe Peninsula. Meanwhile from the early 16th century they had made contacts with the Europeans and established a trade which made them depend on European technologies and the victims of Europeans diseases. There was a tiny settlement begun at Port Royal spreading around the Bay of Fundy to include the tribes of Chignecto, Isthmus and Shepody on the North shore. The Acadians developed a very rich and powerful society by diking the marshes by the Bay of Fundy. They used the marsh land to build there farms which couldn't be used before because the tides were so strong . The government of France ignored them so that allowed them to be independent and to count on each other for their food lumber etc.

Names About New Brunswick - History When Samuel de Champlain and other Europeans began to visit New Brunswick in the earlv 1600s, they were met by Maliseets and Micmacs. The early French farmers settled at the head of the Bay of Fundy and up the St. John River Valley as far as present-day Fredericton and called the land Acadia. Fall-out from the English and French wars in Europe resulted in the expulsion of more than 5,000 Acadians in 1755. Some of them escaped to what was then a remote and uninhabited coastline along the Gulf of St. Lawrence and Chaleur Bay. Today we call it the Acadian Peninsula. Others returned to France or fled to the United States, many settling in Louisiana. In 1783 it was the English who were refugees. During the American Revolution some citizens from the eastern seaboard wanted to remain loyal to the English crown and fled to Canada. So many landed in Saint John that by 1785 they were able to incorporate Canada's first city.
