About Orange, Vermont 
Orange County
*Area, Population and Density rankings above refer to Orange's relative position among Vermont's 255 civic entities (9 cities, 242 towns, 4 gores and grants). Complete rankings are here.
Named for the county, rather than the other way around. Many histories have said that both were named for William of Orange, who ascended the British throne as William III in 1689. This would be quite likely, if Benning Wentworth had had anything to do with it. In fact, both names were given during the Revolution, and folks weren't inclined to go about naming places after British monarchs at that point. More likely, named for the town of Orange in either Connecticut or Massachusetts.
