Sussex, New BrunswickSussex is a town in Kings County, New Brunswick, Canada, located about seventy kilometers north-north-east of Saint John. History The town of Sussex became incorporated in 1895 after the construction of a railway and a highway though the area, but it was only officially established on April 30, 1904. The settlers were for the most part British Loyalists who had fled the American Revolution in 1776. The economy of Sussex has declined recently with the closure of a potash mine and with the Trans-Canada Highway moving straight between Fredericton and Moncton; it had before detoured slightly to go through Sussex. The economic decline has caused a proportional decrease in population, with many young people leaving for work. Demographics Most people in Sussex have some Scottish, French, and English ancestry. There are smaller groups of German and Dutch lineage, and very few Native Americans, East Europeans, Asians, and Afro-Canadians. The town is almost universally anglophone, being in the heart of English-speaking southern New Brunswick. Trivia The town is home to Sussex Golden Ginger Ale, and at one point it claimed to be the birthplace of the ice cream cone. The Kings County Record recently proved this claim to be false. Sussex titles itself as the Dairy Capital of New Brunswick. External links
