2021 Map of Princeton North

About this map

The Red Covered Bridge stands as a landmark over Big Bureau Cr in this rural landscape north of Princeton. This area of Bureau County is defined by a deep-rooted agricultural grid and a collection of small hamlets and historical burial grounds. Settlements like Limerick, Greenoak, and Dover punctuate the intersections of county roads, while numerous cemeteries, including Limerick Cem, Pioneer Cem, and Prairie Repose Cem, offer significant clues for genealogical research. The terrain is marked by several winding watercourses, such as Epperson Run, Masters Fork, and Lime Cr, which cut through the farmsteads and wooded sections of the prairie. In the southern portion of the map, the northern edge of Princeton shows the transition from residential streets to open fields near Beaver Glenn Lake.
