2019 Map of Princeton

About this map

Princeton serves as the focal point of this Gibson County landscape, where the street grid of the city transitions into the surrounding agricultural and industrial terrain. The northern portion of the map is punctuated by several historic burial grounds, including the Archer Cemetery and the Odd Fellows Cemetery, providing significant landmarks for genealogical research. To the east, the large expanse of Lake Gibson stands out against the more intricate network of waterways such as Richland Creek and Pigeon Creek. As the map moves south toward Fort Branch, the terrain is defined by a series of drainage ditches like McCarty Ditch and McGary Ditch, illustrating the engineered nature of the regional hydrology. Smaller named locations like Baldwin Heights, King, and Durham anchor the rural crossroads, while cemeteries such as Walnut Hill and Durham Cemetery mark the enduring presence of long-established local communities.
