Description
Six Mile Run is the historic name for an unincorporated community located in the area of the stream called Six Mile Run, which is a tributary of the Millstone River. The settlement originally formed around the Six Mile Run Dutch Reformed Church, which was established in 1710. The community of Six Mile Run was formally renamed Franklin Park in 1872, but many landmarks in the area continue to carry on the Six Mile Run name. This historic name is associated with a portion of present-day Franklin Township (Somerset County) and the adjacent sections of North Brunswick and South Brunswick (Middlesex County) along present-day Route 27 (which serves as the county line separating Somerset and Middlesex).
