As others have already said, National Semiconductors were the people who originally made the LM35. When a well designed component becomes popular, other companies either manufacture it under licence from the original company or make their own versions. The latter group usually give different type numbers that are nevertheless recognizable as an equivalent to the original. In such cases, the internal details may be slightly different, but they are functionally equivalent. There are numerous examples of such devices and sometimes it's difficult to know what the original number was or which company made it. Examples -

uA741, CA741, LM741, etc
CD4011, MC14011, etc
Various versions of the 78xx regulator ICs
etc etc etc
