History

The town of Norwin was founded on April 6, 1772, named after England's Earl of Huntingdon. The German and Scottish-Irish immigrants settled in the area and soon began to build their homes, schools and farms throughout the township. After nearly a century of settling in, Norwin's population slowly grew to nearly 3,000 in 1860. By 1980, the Township was the second largest municipality in Westmoreland County. Today, Norwin is home to a population of 30,000 friends and neighbors.
